Battery Or Starter?

[jundogg]

same issue here. un lancer 79 ko. usually quick start lang sha, pero after ma-stock at hindi magamit un car for several days, yan na. kanina ko lang din naexperience na hindi na magstart and long cranking sound lang.tinulak ko nagstart naman agad makina. nun pinatay ko uli nagstart din naman agad, pero later tonight nun papaalis nako, yaw na uli magstart! my bad is, kulang sa rev kanina nun nagstart na. i think it's more on the batt, baka nadischarge ng kaunti kaya mahina cranking power to start up the engine.
normally kasi, mga 13V plus ang kelangan ng makina to start. pag lower, di talaga kaya. im sure pag jimumper ko tomorrow yun, aandar agad un. hope di pa sira batt ko at wag na sana iparecharge, madaan lang sana sa rev
moral of the story, laging gamitin ang oto, kung di man, painitan ang makina every day.

issue resolved! batt problem ito. buti di starter. kinabit ko sa van un batt ko para macharge tapos ginamit ko batt ng van, start agad! kelangan talaga lagi painitan ang makina para di ma-stock. else, disconnect batt if matagal tatambak ang car.

My guess is solenoid...kung battery prob yan, kahit papaano may redondo...kung starter brush, matagal kasi maupod yun. My Sentra, 10 years old na, makapal pa ang brush, daily ride ko yun for 9 years

Malinaw pa ba headlights while the engine is off? Kung malabo na, most probably, battery nga.
