got up and turned the key and the motor turned over once and now its just clicking and the positive line is getting warm motor trys to turn and you can hear the starter click but no turning ok i take it off and leave the leads connected and turn the key and it spins but doesnt sound like it should am i correct in thinking i have a bad starter???? any help would be greatly appreciated .....


by the way this is a 94 chevy blazer with the vortec engine i just replaced the spider and was getting ready to ride but as it always goes when you fix one thing something else gives out

 

how bad/long was your spider leaking? did you replace spark plugs etc too? when my fuel pressure regulator went out in my '94 it filled the cylinders with fuel and as a result the engine would not turn over (gas doesn't compress). At first I thought it was starter too took it off and took it to autozone to be tested and it was fine. When i did my fpr as i pulled the old plugs i tapped the key to blow the fuel out of the cylinders one by one.
If you have the starter off autozone or advance will test it for free if you think that is the problem.

 

Did you pressurize the system prior to putting the plenum back on?

Is your battery up to proper charge?
