new on this site and hope to get some help from you guys,OK am been having this issue for the last few months,when I put the key in the ignition and turn to start the engine it won't start I can hear the click down in the starter but nothing, I keep turning the key in the ignition over & over and then finally engine starts,but this does not happen all the times sometimes I put key & turn and engine fire up in the first attempt, I replace ignition and new starter but still having same problem,any clue any body have this problem before??

Thank you.

 
Could be dirty contacts in the starter motor.
 
Is there a switch on the auto lever that wont let it start if its not in park or neutral? if so i had a Gs300 (Aristo vertex) that had that used to play up - i ended up always starting it in neutral - might be worth seeing if it starts in neutral every time to discount the idea.
 
I second chas : burnt contacts in the startermotor.
