What causes the starter not to engage periodically on a 1998 ford expedition?
starter motor need overhaul
Why is there a delay to start Nissan 200sx after key is in ignitation?
The solenoid that activates the stater motor is of a type that engages the starter gear first (by means of a activation rod), then applies the current to the starter motor. This sequence causes the slight delay. Other starters simply apply the current directly to the starter (via the solenoid) which instantly starts the motor spinning, this spinning (through a spiral cut into the shaft) throws the starter gear along the shaft to engage with the teeth on the flywheel. This type has no delay as the motor doesn't wait for the solenoid to manually engage the stare gear; it is the spinning that engages the gear. Forgive me if I'm not using the correct names. I'm not a mechanic, but I have dismantled a 200sx to fix it (which I did) and discovered this arrangement inside the solenoid; which is different to what I am used to.

If the starter spins but won't engage, then the Bendix is not engaging the flywheel. Remove the starter and test to see if the Bendix thrusts out, and check to see that the flywheel does not have chipped teeth.

What causes the starter not to engage when the key is turned on in a 1992 Lincoln?
If there is complete silence when the key is turned, try tapping the solenoid on the starter with a hammer. Don't laugh. I have found this to be the solution in several cases. This is sure proof that the starter solenoid is the problem. You will want to install a new starter which comes with a new solenoid before you get stranded.

Toyota previa starter motor wont engage
Two functions of a solenoid fitted to a pre engaged starter motor?
1. To engage the starter with the ring-gear on the engine before the starter is turned on. IE to "pre-engage" it. 2. To turn the starter on once it is Engaged. This prevents/reduces damage to the gear-teeth on both the starter and the ring gear.
