when i turn the key it sounds like the starter is just spinning and I guess the bendix wont move, could that just be it or maybe something else?

 

it's the clutcj in the starter, just got mine rebuilt a little while ago, same problem

 

davebonds is doing the same thing, or something.


The only thing I know is it takes me ~3-4mins to get my starter off while it took him more like 15minutes.

To be fair it did only take him about 5 minutes to get my starter put back on.


oh yeah, he has my starter on his car, I dont know why I let him, lol.

 

is there any way to get it to start?

 

Hammer sometimes

 

push start

 

I had the same problem. Just replace the starter. It was apparently time for it to go.

 

I have a new starter now, and davebond has a lightly used one (very lightly)

 

thanks guys

 

oh, when it was going out on my dads durango I would put a wrench over the fan (little, ok well big nut that held it on) and move it alittle. Would always start after doing that. wouldnt really help you unless you put a socket on the crank pulley bolt.

 

I dont wanna sound stupid but do you mean the cranshaft bolt? or another bolt on the starter itself?

 

Check your air filter duct, vacuum tubes and make sure your battery got enough juices to start her up.
