Hey, cheers in advance for any info. My starter started chugging over the weekend, sounding iffy about starting. This morning I went to go to work and she turned over once or twice and then died. Turning the ignition again just made a click. I knew it wasn't the battery because I just put a new battery in a month ago, and she was making the dodgy noises on the weekend after having been driven for a while and then only off for two mins before startin again.
Anyways this morning when it was only clickin I put her in first and rocked her forward and back a bit, and it started ok then. Started no bother after work then too, but now won't start at all. Depressin stuff :)
Anyways I'll try get the uncle to look at it tomorrow to see if he can confirm that it's the starter. Engine runs and idles completely normally once running.
Main thing I wanted to find out was whether the S15 has a specific starter motor, or if I pick up a secondhand S14 one should it be alright? Had a good browse around but couldn't find the answer! Gonna skip work tomorrow and see what I can do. Priorities :D
Cheers!
