When a starter goes POP ..

[kywes@bellsouth.net (Wes Brockway)]

Sorry for the empty post. Starters have two parts, the solenoid to
engage the starter to the flywheel and the starter motor to spin the
flywheel. My experience with your problem is that the solenoid of the
starter is working (the pop when the key is engaged and then disangaged)
but the starter isn't spinning. The pop would say that battery power is
getting to the starter and that the control circuitry is working so
either the starter isn't getting the trigger to turn or the starter
motor is bad.

and then just goes clack when you turn the key to on, and clack again
when 
you let go of the key - no buzzing or whatnot - I'm assuming that's the
end 
of this starter and time for me to buy a new one or swap the heat victim

back in?!

Sucks, now I have to push start it myself .. good thing the down ramp
isn't 
too far and I parked ass in :)
