My 88 had the same problem. Turns out the alternator was not quite charging the battery to full level. The battery should be charged to 12.4 to 12.6V (room temperature, new battery=12.6V). Adding distilled water to the battery did not solve the problem (try this first). The alternator was only charging it to 12.1V.
yes that's exactly what happens, the starter can get slower and slower over a couple days and then it won't start at all. you won't be able to "jump start" battery either. starter must be replaced..if u can find a used or rebuilt one, they're jst as good. new starter approx. $90-$130. used around $40
YES. USE THE NORMAL DIRECT-ON-LINE OR ACROSS-THE-LINE STARTER.
Yes, but only if you can crank engine at normal starter speed.
It means either you have a bad connection to the starter (dirty cables, wires, etc) or that you have a bad starter motor. The click is actually the starter solenoid kicking the starter drive into position, but the starter motor either is not getting the juice required to turn the engine over or is shorted and not allowing the starter to turn. Either way, the problem is in the starter motor circuit. You're best bet is to clean ALL electrical connections between the battery and starter. If that doesn't work, you probably will need a new starter.
If a motor is connected in a star configuration it will operate at a slower speed. This is the working process that a star delta starter operates on. At first through the starter the motor starts in the star connection. When the motor gets up to its highest speed in that connection it times a timer out , the star starter drops out and the delta starter pulls in and then connects the motor in the delta connection. This allows more voltage to be applied to the motor and it then speeds up to its nameplate rated RPM.
capacitive start motors start by themselves however a normal single phase induction motor requires a starter motor to 'kick-start' the motor into action.
Yes The 20T motor is slower than the 15T motor with The 19T pinion
The starter motor is at the rear of the engine.
The starter motor is at the rear of the engine.
You can find the starter on the right hand side of the motor. The starter will be near the back of the motor. You can follow the positive battery cable to the starter.
Which connects starter motor and the battery temporary to get sufficient power to starter motor.
It starts the motor.
