[alfa] GTV-6 starter



Hello fellow Digesters (!),
The starter on my 84 GTV-6 rather suddenly began to crank at what seems like half power. The battery is new, and all other electrics are working properly (except the emergency flashers, but thats a puzzle for another day...). Does anyone know if starters go bad like this? I thought they slowly lost their cranking power over time. Anybody know how to check the starter w/ a multimeter? And, which grounding strap is associated with the starter? And, is it possible the timing has changed via sensor failure which might send the wrong signal to the ignition system? If so, which sensor?

Thx,
-bbradsby
