Ok, there's been a slight misfire, since FCS, like the car is struggling, pulling away in 1st it's as if the clutch was slipping, it was juddery. Driving home, it didn't feel happy at low revs, and it felt underpowered a little.
Driving to work I noticed the revs would just dip to zero for a split second sometimes. I cleaned out the spark plugs thinking it could be that. Drove to work, car juddered to a halt in rush hour. Yay. Car would try to crank over but get stuck, as if one cylinder was unhappy.
I've got the car apart. Hand cranked engine, seems fine hand cranking. Went to start car without plugs in to see if it cranks. The starter motor just whirs, it appears there is no contact between it and the flywheel. The pistons dont move. Could the starter have been jamming on the flywheel, or perhaps a flywheel issue? Surely it is only a mechanical thing, no sensors involved right?
The starter has been overheating more and more lately and leaving me unable to start when hot.
If it is the starter, how the fek did it cause me to stall and stop engine starting?
