Car cranks then cranking slows down and engine whines before starting. What is the whining sound?
Smrandy
ungeased-dry-worn "Bendix" assembly /within, and part-of the complete
starter assembly/. non-repairable, but once taken out, may be 'saved' by
judiciously applying a heavy grease to areas that spin-slide-rub against,
including the metal round bushing that the gear slams-against at the end
of it's travel. On the bench, you can hot-wire it to see action/hear action.
if still noisy, it may be bushing in the back-cover, that may need a tiny dab
of grease. other-wise, get a 'rebuilt' with a warrantee.

I used to have a little trick. Before you start the car, just pump your gas pedal a couple of times, then start your car. Mine used to start right up after this. I'm not sure why my car wouldn't start when cold, but it got me around!
