Weird starter
Starter sometimes makes a hammering sound while cranking. I can see the fan turn slowly while this is happening. After several tries, it finally cranks normally and starts. Sometimes if I turn the key to START, then stab the clutch I have better luck.
Battery is good. I pulled the starter, applied jumper cables, and the bendix pops out fine, and the motor turns. I reinstalled it, making sure the connections are clean and tight, but same problem. Once the car's warmed up, it starts fine.
'88 N/A 5-sp.
