Best Answer

It might be a wedge, lever or stake used to arrest the motion of a car or carriage (a simple brake or chock), or an upright support (ie- mine prop).

It is also a clutch mechanism, or a reference to specific components within a certain type of clutch.

It may also mean the infantile offspring of the Codfish; a name for Codfish babies.

Why would the starter just spin when you try to start the car?

the sprag clutch ( overrun gear ) is gone and needs to be replaced a new part can be bought but normally the complete starter is changed in some cases squirting diesel oil on the sprag clutch can cure the problem but it normally reoccurs again


On your 1995 Mercury villager fixed old starter put on engine Tested it on battery works fine put on the car and the starter spins but it does not engage the ring gear?

the sprag clutch is gone the sprag clutch is part of the small gear in the starter basically you need to buy a new gear or a new starter depending on the price it is often called the bendix
