It sounds like the timing is bad. You'll need to have a mechanic check it.
You want to bypass the ignition system and jump the solenoid to see if the starter engages. I f it does, it is not the starter,if it doesn't, than it is the stater. You can also jump power straight from the batt to the pos cable of the starter to see if it engages.
Modern starters include: * the starter motor... a motor * the solenoid, which engages the electrical current to the starter AND engages the gear to the flywheel. * the bendix, which is a gear that engages the starter to the flywheel.
It's actually on the starter, and it's the small cylinder attached to it. Windstar starters have a dual-purpose solenoid that not only engages the starter gear with the flywheel, but also acts as the starter relay.
The chain can not backfire. If it is installed off time it can cause a backfire, which could conceivably damage a starter.
i tried it all it did was backfire still wouldnt start Spray the starter fluid into the air filter intake. If it backfires and will not start you have a problem that needs to be fixed.
I'm not sure what you mean by "slips". Is the starter making a grinding noise or does the starter sound like it is missing the flywheel completely? My first thought was a bad starter drive (part of the starter) but if you replaced the starter with a new one it shouldn't be that.
To turn the engine over so that it will start. The starter engages cogs on the flywheel.
solenid switch engages and disengages the bendix on the starter
either clean and tighten cable connections or get battery tested. if not the battery, it is the solenoid or the starter If it is clicking and not starting at first, but starts after a few tries, its your starter taking a dump. Replace it.
The bushings and/or the brushes are worn on it.
Sounds like your starter drive shaft is broken. If the starter is spinning but the shaft they comes out of the nose cone engages, but does not spin, it is most likely broken...You may have other issues causing the problem. www.txdashcovers.com
If you're implying that it engages without you turning the key, the problem is one of the following: * a faulty wire somewhere, * the starter solenoid was connected wrong * or the solenoid return spring has broken.
