Engine Performance problem
1992 Ford Tempo 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 244,09 miles
everytime i drive my car i will come to a stop turn the car off,and when i go to start it all i hear is a click the car will not even try to start, the only way i can start it is by jumping it and banging on the starter with a hammer. it does not do it all the time but most of the time it will, any ideas i have a few but i would like your opinion |

sounds like your brushes are worn out. or a bad connection on selinoid. which starter do you have old style or new. large or small. the old style(large) has no selenoid at the starter itself. that starter has a ground connection that's a simple pinch under bendix cover. on the new style the ignition wire is a push on connector that can be loose/corroded or not properly connected. |
