I would check the starter solenoid before I investigated the starter - it's likely the cause. Have someone try starting the car hot while you measure the voltage between the starter side of the solenoid and negative - you should get battery voltage. If not, the problem is the solenoid (or somewhere before it, electrically).
A bad throttle position sensor, on your 1991 Saturn, will cause the engine to run rough when it is idling. The engine will run normally at higher speeds.
Most likely the selonoid on the starter motor needs replacing
It might happen because of a faulty starter gasket.
Not normally.Not normally.
Probably a stuck solenoid.
Using the pull starter with the engine running can cause damage to the starter mechanism and the engine itself. The pull starter is designed for starting the engine, and engaging it while the engine is already operating can create excessive tension on the starter cord and internal components. This can lead to potential breakage or malfunction of the pull starter system. Additionally, it may pose a safety risk if the cord snaps or if the engine stalls unexpectedly.
Yes, a bad starter can cause a slow engine startup. When the starter motor is failing, it may not generate enough power to turn the engine over quickly, leading to sluggish cranking. Additionally, issues such as worn-out brushes or a weak battery can exacerbate the problem, resulting in delayed engine ignition. If you experience slow starts, it's essential to have the starter and related components checked.
Does the engine crank over?
Could be, (assuming the starter is not cranking the engine) a bad starter, dirty or loose battery connections, the engine is seized.
Could be a bad battery or starter.
no installig a starter wrong will not cause engine knocking. all that will do is maybe short fuses, heat up wires, ruin your starter, or melt wires. knocking isn't electrical it is mechanical like lifters, pistons, valves, things like that
A 1991 Honda Civic DX 1.5 liter engine starter might stick because the starter is damaged. The flywheel might be missing teeth which could cause the starter to stick.
