    My 1988 4runner will sometimes start with no problem and sometimes will just click I have installed new grounds, a new starter, and a new starter relay and I'm still having this issue. Any help would be great!

    Next step would be to look into the ignition switch itself.

    Sounds like you need to do the starter wiring trick I just did. Check out rm garage click no start video on YouTube.

    I just did this on mine and it’s started every time. He explains step by step on the YouTube video.
