1988 trooper (4 cylinder gas engine)

I am getting intermittent performance from my starter motor. Sometimes when I turn the key, I just get a clicking noise. Other times it will start right away. I know it is probably a bad solenoid. Can this solenoid be replaced or rebuilt or do I have to change the complete starter motor? Thanks for any help!

Replace the starter motor with a rebuilt one. Do it yourself. Quite easy (from underneath) on this car. No jacking required. Best solution I think. Kind regards, Erik-Jan.

Sometimes that problem can be caused by something as simple as dirty battery terminals. So check that first.
