well guys i'm back for more help after i just finished fixing the cooling system problems more keep on coming so heres a list of the brand new parts i just put on the car
Radiator
Thermostat
Heater core hose (had to ghetto rig my own cause they dont even have it at any auto parts stores around)
Spark Plugs (NGK Platinum)
Spark Plug Wires
Battery
Starter
Serpentine belt
well all of these parts and my car still runs like garbage only 5 injectors are working...but anyway the car started fine after the new starter and battery but now when i turn the ignition to crank the engine it turns the motor for less than a second then just makes a weird whining noise like the starter is just spinning neutral or like it engages at first then just shoots back in. Thats exactly what the bad starter did and thats y i replaced...but other than that the car runs fine if i pushstart it (well other then the V8 minus 3 cylinders lol V5)
but what could cause this how do i fix it i need help im stuck and cant drive it anymore and theres an Illinois Camaro Club meeting this weekend i wanna go check it out.
Also what gear do you guys push start your cars in ive heard you could do it in 4th? but ive been doing it in 1st and it takes like a decent 10mph roll to do it
well anyway thanks in advance guys
