its probably ignition related - check and clean the inside of the distributor cap. Start it while dark to see if you have sparks flying around.

solenoid slip???? to you mean chatter (with or without crankover)?

Without: low battery or poor power delivery.

With: bad pinoin/ring gear(s)/bearing.-remove starter to inspect pinion & bearing.

NB: 11.5V oc min for LF 2.2 injection system to work at all.
Min Crank Voltage not specified. (????)
