Starter Problem (Vid Included)

I just dropped my motor in my 95 gst, i got it to start and run, but when i came back to restart it it just makes a clicking noise . Heres a link to the noise it makes. http://media.putfile.com/Damn-Starter

Check your battery posts, make sure they are clean and tight. Do a voltage reading on the battery and make sure its 12V on both the terminals and the cables while it isnt running. I've heard that sound before, sounds like you're not getting enough juice. If I recall correctly, a starter issue will cause the vehicle to turn over very slowly, and then eventually just die and not make any noises at all. Start with the basics.

Thanks, i will recheck my ground and the voltage, there was one thing i noticed, i dont have the big ground cable the goes with the starter connected anywhere to the motor/trans. I will try to move that.

Keep us posted, most likely minor detail.

Sounds like your bendex is going out in your starter. It could also be its throwing the starter rod out but can't turn the flywheel. Check the starter..

Alittle background on car, it has big16g, 255 walbor pump, fmic, 3g lifters, greddy bov, stock 450cc injectors, greddy turbo timer, and 3in exhaust no cat. When i brought the car it had two cracked valves but i decided to put another engine out of a 99 in it, because i been led to believe the previous owner didnt take to car of it, so the car set for over a year befoe i got my hands on it. So i think the year old gas could have a affect on how it runs. thanks
