Yea I think Pats right about the problem being with the starter. You can
try what I do when this happens to me. I carry an old jack handle and
hammer in the trunk. Give the starter a few good whacks with this combo. I
think that I would tap the solenoid and the starter a few times each and the
car would always start after that. That's been working for a couple of
years.

$With the indication that the ammeter goes to full discharge when you hit
$the start position, I believe you have a bad starter. Adding a push
$button under the dash will not help. I know it's a pain, but pull the
$starter and take it to a shop to be checked out.
