Starter Issues
So my starter seems to only work when it wants to. My engine wont crank at all sometimes and other times it will start right up. I can still turn on the car by popping the clutch but that's the only way it will turn on when the starter doesn't want to work. I checked the all the connections to the starter and everything seems fine. What do you guys think? Starter?

you need a new starter or your battery cables or your battery are in need of some help.

Just took it out and it seems that my last oil change did a number to it. The whole starter is covered in oils... I cleaned it up and see if that would do the trick and it didn't... Oh well. Just waiting now from the new one to get here.

LOL, Just how does a oil change cause the starter to be covered in oil? Did you not put the filter on right or did you pour a quart of oil down the valve cover? I think I'd be more worried by just how that much oil got on the starter than why it wouldn't start. Fix the leek first?? |

Heh, he must go to one of those crappy oil change places. :disgust:
