Start & Wont Start, need help please
Hey Everyone, my first post and its not a good one, bought a 1997 Honda Civic EX yesterday and this morning it started making this noise when I started it. I attached a video link to it. I called the guy who I bought it from and asked him if he had this proble he told me he had a spare starter. So I changed it out and it is still doing the same thing. I took them BOTH to Auto Zone and they tested them and they were both good. Any help would be greatly appricated!!!!:D
in the video the first 2 times it cranks and the next 3 times makes the noise im talking bout then the last time it cranks again http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Hp63nSx_TQ |
almost sounds like a car when you try to start it when it's already started.

Yep thats what I thought also. Dont know if maybe the flywheel is got some ground down teeth? Im a little ticked off right now bout the whole deal thou, that this guy sold it to me like this, never did this when I test drove it?

also the bottom bolt is missing on the starter, I think its the same size M10 X 1.25 but it is longer, then the top bolt, anybody know how long, and is it the same size as the top bolt?

Are the starter wires reversed, with black wire on the solenoid and black/white wire on the starter motor?
