Meine starter ist kaputt

[xj0hnx]

Ok, so I am sitting there cranking the car, and it sounds like there's no power. Well I do this for a couple minutes then smoke starts pouring out of the starter. So, I need a new one.

The question is what starters will bolt to a B16A? Can I pull a D series and use that, or does it even bolt up? And does OBD even matter on the starter?

any b-series hydro should work fine. a d-series won't. obd doesn't matter. its the same plug for 1 and 2.

try pop starting it.... or simply roll the car a little bit- sometimes theres dead spots on the starter..

That's how I have been starting it, but no this isn't a dead spot, it is smoking, like a chimey, if I crank it more than once.

if its dead, it shouldn't smoke... maybe you have a short somewhere?

I was thinking that, but the looked and I can't find anything, plus all other electronics are fully functional. If it is a short, it has to be in the starter itself, because it only smokes and smells when I have tried cranking it a few times.

Well, I got my new starter in the mail today, 99 ITR. Cost $70 bucks, and now it cranks for a milisecond and turns over, nice. Here's the old one, you can see where the power wire was just cooking it...

Looks like the starter on my truck that got fried recently...
