- Hello, rec.autoers.
-
- I have experienced the following problem for about a year or so, but it
- doesn't bother my daily driving. Some day it will. Can anyone help?
-
- My car is a Nissan Micra GL with 1.0 lt engine, a little baby. About
- 1/5 of the times when I turn the ignition on, I only hear the starter
- motor running, but the engine itself seems to be still. I usually can
- get it started at the second trial. Is there any way that I can check
- what is possibly going wrong, by myself? The workshop manual says the
- gear of the starter motor could have been worn. If it is true, how can
- I start it most of the time?
-
- Any ideas and suggestions are welcome. If you want to reply, please
- use the following email address:
