Need to check for voltage at starter and from the clutch switch & ignition
switch. Hot no starts can be solenoid.

work, shut it off.  Backed the truck out of the garage, went to start the
SHO, and nothing.  No cranking, no starter whirring, etc.

hot, really hot.  If I let it cool down, it tends to start (although a bit
slowly).  It has now repeated this three times; hot = no start, wait =
eventual start.
