starter making grinding noise

just recently ive been trying to start my jeep,

and when the starter engages, all i can hear is the flywheel being ground the the starter spindle,

how can i fix this?

bump,

any one??

its getting bad, i almost wasnt able to get it started to get it back home

Is the clutch making any weird noises?

Do you know how to do a push start?

clutch is fine,

i try to start in neutral,

and it makes the noise as if my flywheel was allready spinning and i tried to engage it

yea i know how to do one of those XD

tried to do one of em when my truck had no clutch and the battery terminals were fubar

i just drove my truck up onto the jacks and I'm going to take a look,

lot you guys know what i find :thumbsup:

looks like i had a loose starter bolt,

i tightened it right up,

put all the tools back,

started the truck up,

omg world of diffrence, sounds sooo good :yes:

the other day, since my starter was loose i guess, i scared the crap out of an old lady starting up my truck :brows: :shake: :rotfl2:

this solves my other tech question as well :thumbsup:
