Make sure car is not running lean, because if so then it
will heat-soak the starter no matter what, check you PCV
hose, if it is leaking oily then you have a vacuum leak. Any
vaccuum leak will make car go lean.

Also you can hook up an external relay to throw more current and voltage to the starter. Go to celica.net under 4th gen celica message board under the Sticky there is a starter fix. This is what I ended up doing with mine. I had three starter too. It is not the starter. It is your car running hot. But the relay is a cure all. The car will start every time with this fix. 4 wires power, ground and the stater solenoid wire spliced. Check out the post on celica.net
