A cranking motor has an unusually high amperage draw accompanied byslow cranking speed?
most likely a failing starter
Why does a cranking motor have an unusually high amperage draw accompanied by a slow cranking speed?
The armature bushings inside the starter motor are probably shot. Time to replace the starter.
What happens to the car when the battery has too many cranking amps?
Nothing at all. Increasing the cranking amps will not harm anything. The starter will only draw the amps it needs.
What would be the cause of high current starter draw?
decribe two causes of higher than normal starter current draw
Ford F-250 - can you burn the starter up after trying to start when you run out of diesel?
Any time your overheat the starter motor by overcranking without enough cooling time you can damage the starter. If you let it cool good and it's still not right you will need to do an amp draw test on it to see if it's in range. Good luck
What makes a marine battery's terminals hot?
Amperage draw, excessive amperage draw, and or dirty & loose connections. This should be checked out if the temperature is elevated when not cranking your engine.
How do you tell if starter or fuse is bad?
Remove starter and bench test it for operation and current draw
What does the starter relay do in Chevy Malibu?
Starter relay protects the ignition switch from excessive electrical draw.
What causes the starter to overheat on a 1956 Ford Thunderbird?
Starters can overheat because they are cranking for too long - It takes an enormous amount of amperage which = power and heat, to crank over some of the older motors- Or, the engine is stuck and the starter is trying to draw more amperage, which, creates heat, to turn it over. 10 seconds of cranking at a time is recommended with a few seconds for cooldown. If your engine won't start in that amount of time, you probably have an air/fuel delivery issue, or a weak battery that cannot turn the engine fast enough, or a bad ignition system.
How much current does a starter wire draw to activate the solenoid?
25amps

What happens when you have too many Cold Cranking Amps?
There is no such thing as too many cold cranking amps! The battery does not push the CCA (cold cranking amperage) but merely has it available to the starter to draw from the battery as the starter needs it. Buying a bigger CCA Battery is a waste of money and may work the alternator a bit harder to keep it charged but will not cause damage to the electronics or starter. The bigger CCA Batteries have their plates closer together which will result in the battery not lasting quite as long but this shorter life may be out weighed by the additional power needed for accessories or cold starting conditions. Along with the CCA (cold cranking amps) the consumer ought to also consider the "AH" rating (know as the AmpHour Rating). This is the specification that tells you how long you can accidently leave the lights on or an accessory on before the battery will be drained dead. >Good AH ratings are somewhere between 41AH & 65AH which will allow the lights to be on for 5 to 10 hours yet still start the vehicle (in average temperature weather).
