If the starter just spins and does not engage then you have low battery or a stuck 'bendix' on the starter. -Running hot is a separate problem that may happen for any number of easons.

The starter will kick in but it just spins and the engine won't kick over?

1976 XLH Harley Sportster - How do you remove the starter It spins fine when we push the button but it doesn't turn the motor over?

There's probably no problem with the starter. The solenoid sounds like the problem. It is the little round thing with the wires hooked to it forward of the starter on your model. Don't forget to disconnect the battery before removing it and remember which posts the wires are on.

1984 mercury marquis starter spins?

Starter spins but doesn't turn engine? Probably the starter drive. The starter drive is part of the starter and can be replaced if the rest of the starter is still healthy. If your not to handy with wrenches you may want to replace the whole starter with a rebuilt one. Worst case, the flywheel ring gear is bad in which case the transmission would have to come out for replacement of ring gear.

How a starter works?

Electric current from the battery goes to solenoid, it clicks in and connects the full power of battery to starter main terminal, this spins the starter motor over, the starter Bendix gear on the end of the motor shaft spins around and forward about an inch to engage the gearing on the rim of the flywheel. This turns and when speed is up it throws the starter gear back to it's rest position.
