For the last few weeks I have been getting a very noisy start-up. In my younger days it would indicate a starter going bad. In this instance it doesn't happen after that first start. I can drive and start several times over an afternoons ride and never hear the noise.

My next thought was oil issues on the top side. This would might hold true because the noise doesn't happen after the initial start. Oil level is fine.

Anyone out there with similar problems or have an idea what mine could be?

Thanks,

Tom
