You mean the starter is turning but not engaging the engine? or it is engaging but just not cranking hard enough to turn the motor over? Not sure if the starter solenoid is separate from the starter, but think that it is. The clymer''s manual indicates that they are magnetic mechanical solenoids so they would seem to be affected by heat soak, just like in older cars. Did you already replace the solenoid when you replaced the starter?
