Best Answer

Check the gear around the "flex plate". That's the gear that the starter engages when you try to start the engine. You'll need to either pull the starter or the dust cover if that vehicle has one, so that you can inspect the gear. After you have access to the gear, slowly turn the engine so that you can inspect every tooth on the gear. If one or more are missing or severely worn, the starter gear will pull back and you'll get exactly what you're describing.
