My car has been turning over really slow lately and i was driving down the street a couple days ago and it just shuts off and it wont start. It sounds really strange when i turn it over too so all things point to the starter, but why would the car shut off when its already started? i put my stock cx dizzy on it and it made the same noise when i turned it over...what went bad on me?

motor is JDM D15 with 98 EX trans- TIA

 

the starter silinoid, [?sp] if its going bad, it wont retract it self when you let crank and start the car

 

and any CEL codes ? is this the same car ur timimg belt snapped ?

 

no CELs, yes its the same car the tbelt snapped on, but i found the problem with that and fixed it and my timing is set at 16-17 i adjusted it less than a week ago

 

bump....im gonna try to get vid of me cranking it today

 

Dose it just click ? Low battery, bad alternator ? Check the bascis fuel and spark.

 

i cant describe the sound it makes, battery is brand new, i just want to know if its possible for the car to shut off because of a bad starter because it sounds retarded when i crank it and its been getting worse over the last couple weeks until now

 

alternator belt could be loose maybe or the alternator is just shot all together. When you are driving your alternator is providing the power to your accesories. maybe nothing is charging? i can't explain the weird noise though, my car sounded fucked up when my starter itself was loose. make sure you have ALL THE BOLTS, even the ones that hold on the brackets and ****

 

tightened the alternator belt, thought that was the problem but now im about 80% sure its the starter...anybody have a spare? https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1166421
