check by listening to see if your starter is clicking over the engine and if not then you might have to replace the starter. My starter went out on me and did not make a clicking noise that turned over the engine which told me the same problem that your having too. Ok if the engine cranks over just fine but wont start is a statement that is not true whatsoever so please explain which one is it thanks.
I would, first, check the battery connections to make sure they are shiny and clean and tight on the battery.
Then, I would check the amperage draw of the starter in the car.
If it's like 75 to 100 while turning rapidly, that's ok. If it doesn't turnover rapidly with that amperage draw, then the starter is probably going bad.
When the car is jumped, it bypasses the battery connections a little bit, assuming the connections are not allowing full cranking amps of the battery to reach the starter.
remove batter cable from batter. follow postive wire down to starter. Should be some "clips" holding wire into place on the waay down to starter. Loosen those clips and take the wire out. Remove wires from stater. Remove two starter bolts. Job is done. By removing the wires out of those clips you give yourself enough slack to easily do this job. If there still isn't enough room for you, it's not suggested but occsaionaly done, once those wires are removed from the clips, remove starter bolts, the starter will hang by the wires while you remove the wires. This can damage the wires and maybe the solenoid on the new starter. That's why it's NOT SUGGESTED.
Hi, if it's a diesel engine, they all have to sit for some seconds because of the glow plugs. Some diesel don't send power to the starter until the glow plugs run for the pre-determined amount of time. There are many things that could be causing this. Fuel filter, clogged injectors, fuel pump going bad or bad connection to fuel pump.Try checking out for this things.. Take care
Be sure the battery posts and cables a real clean, it takes a lot of current to turn the starter and minor corrosion between the posts and cables is enough to cause this type of problem. Also, make sure the battery has no dead cells.
Remove the inspection pan,undue all the nuts holding the cable,and the ignition starter wire on the solenoid.remove the two bolts that mount the starter.When you go back with the replacement starter,put the shims that came out,back between the starter and the block,if you do not do this,the starter could be damaged,and the flywheel.
the starter may be jammed get someone to turn it over and you tap the starter with a hammar or something like that and it may start or it may be the nutural safety switch for the auto trans if its auto of cource good luck
