Starter 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Margaret on  Tue Jul 15 02:53 CST 2008 [RELATED]

My husband rear ended a car on his way home form work 3 months ago. I put a new grill, radiator and headlights on the car as a result of the crash. I wasn't in a hurry to get it done because I can bike to work when the weather is good. After sitting for 3 months the car now won't start. I get a clicking sound, but the engine won't crank. I checked the obvious and the battery is fine. Is it the starter or could something else have happened while the car sat idle for so long? Also, where is the starter? I see pictures in the Haynes book but not sure which side of the engine its on. Please let me know if anyone can be of assistance.

Regards,

Margaret Rosado
