Hey, Yesterday morning as I left for school I heard a metal banging sound coming from my engine bay when I started the car, though it still started up okay. The sound seemed to be coming from the middle or passenger side of the car. When I finished school, it took a few tries to get it to start (like 3-4 cranks instead of 1-2).
I parked it in my driveway when I got home and then went to start it up again about 15 minutes later, to no avail. It tries to start, but doesn't quite make it. The alternator does like a half-turn and freezes and the car whines, but it won't fire up.
I'm guessing it's the starter, but does anyone else have a second opinion? It's a '94 Sunbird (2.0L engine), btw.
Thanks guys.
