Starter problems anyone??

If it cranks weakly but won't turn over that sounds like weak battery or bad connection at terminals. If you just hear click-click when you try and start, but no

If it cranks weakly but won't turn over that sounds like weak battery or bad connection at terminals.

If you just hear click-click when you try and start, but no cranking, that could mean a bad soleniod on the starter -- if so, you might still be just barely under warranty for it.

If it turns over and runs, but then splutters out and dies, that's something else althogether (bad vac leak, for example).

Can you get a voltage readout on the dash gauge?
