Service
When starting engine, note starter motor action. The
pinion gear should mesh quickly with flywheel ring gear
and spin engine. Once engine starts and solenoid
opens, the starter should disengage and stop.
If
starter
cranks engine slow, or not at all, check start circuit
components. Failure
to
crank is normally caused by low
battery charge, defective battery cables, corroded or
poor connections, or
low
temperatures. If after checking
these variables, starter continues to crank slowly, starter
must be removed and repaired.
