i have a 95 4x4 blazer and a week ago it would start up, but barely. it would barely turn over every time. then yesterday i go to start it up and nothing...not a clicking noise or anything. the lights and the rest of the electronics are working fine and i can even hear the fuel pump working. im guessing starter but everyone who has checked it said that the starter should be fine. so i swapped out batteries and nothing still. anyone have any ideas?

Had the same problem and after taking starter out and having it tested at auto zone, found out starter was only working at 35% of normal speed. I thought the guy at auto zone was BSing me to get me to buy a new starter. When he tested it I could hear it run so I new it worked, but since I couldn't think of anything else that could be wrong i bought a new starter. Start problem is gone and I trust my Auto zone guys just a little bit more.
