You should only have the starter activated in any type of vehicle for about 15 to 20 seconds at a time. If the vehicle doesn't start within that time period, wait at least one minute before attempting to start it again.

Why doesnt starter engage on 1996 Saturn?
What do you mean when you say it doesn't engage? Is the starter spinning but just doesn't catch to spin the engine? IF that's the case it could be as simple as a loose starter or as bad as a damaged flex plate/flywheel. But it would most likely be the starter.
Why doesnt starter engage always with new starter and flywheel?
