Starter problem
1994 civic hatch
With a jdm B16 swap
Starter never given trouble
All of a sudden today I turned the key and I hear the main relay click but nothing happened
I kept clicking and it started
I shut it off and started 4-5 tines with no trouble
I went in the house for 45 mins came back out it clicked again 3 times and started on the 4th try
If I need a starter or bendix
What car do I tell the auto parts store for my engine
It says B16 on the block
Not b16a
Or a1 or b
Just b16

Re: Starter problem
Another thing you can do after doing all the grounds Ron mentioned and the battery cables, is to take a hammer and rap firmly on the side of the starter. It can knock dirt and debris loose from the solenoid and a lot of times get you a significant amount more life out of your starter.
