Car won't start, seems to crank strangely
Finally got my water thermo sensor installed. Unfortunately I seem to have a worse problem now. When I was compression testing my engine, I noticed the starter sounded a bit different. The car absolutely will not start at all now. I'll try to explain this as best as I can. Instead of the regular "pulsating" kind of thing when you turn the key, it sounds like the starter motor is just spinning and not really turning anything. I thought it broke loose or something, but I had my dad crank it and everything is spinning like it should be. I also noticed kind of a "popping" sort of noise, like the engine was firing, but barely. I've never read of a problem like this before, what's wrong with my car now?
