Re: Problem getting the engine to turn...
How is the battery?......also check the connections at the battery terminals.....and at the starter.
A tight, clean looking connection can still have some corrosion that can cause a significant voltage drop.
Watch the dome light when you try to crank the engine.....does it dim significantly?....if so, the battery may be failing under load.....or the battery terminal connections may need a good cleaning (remove the battery cable and clean the terminals and connectors.....and re-install.
If the dome light does not significantly dim.....the connections at the starter could be in need of the same treatment.
If those 2 don't solve the issue....then it may be a more expensive / involved solution......which is why it is best to try the easy and cheap first.
