Hey all,
Hope everyone has been enjoying the top down weather....Soooo yesterday decided to go out with my daughter for a "rip" and when I turned the key cranking was very slow and then stopped cranking, turned the key again no cranking. Tested battery and coil all looks good there, tested ignition control wire... looks good. Haven't tested the starter yet as it look like a PITA to get to so not enough time to dive into that...going to search up some starter testing videos later to see what I can figure out.
some extra info....a few days ago I was going to try the "brown wire fix" and while under the car I was looking to see how I could fit a wrench on the starter bolt and accidently made a spark show....of course I should of disconnected the battery (rookie mistake). I did start the car after this incident and drove around a few hours with no issues...but thought I'd mention this in case I damaged the starter...thoughts?
