My chevette used to do that (eeee) apparently Id got a cog missing on my starter motor, and if I stopped with that missing tooth in the wrong place the motor would engage with the flywheel and stick there without turning. If I pushed the car backwards (in gear) just a push it would click and fall back - and start ok. ?Carl _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
