Hello everyone! I just picked up another 87 300d. It has been sitting for 3-4 years without started. i did a little research on somethings to do to get her started - mostly fuel related. But the car won't even crank! Glow plug light turns on and then goes off and then I turn the key and nothing.

I am assuming its the starter but wanted to know if anyone had any other thoughts of what it could be before I buy a starter. None of the fuses were blown and all wiring looked fine. Its a little more rough than I thought when I bought it & may just use it as a parts car to my other 87. I put the battery from my other 87 in it when trying to start it.

Any thoughts? Will a 300e starter work on this car?
