So my start is sticking when I go to start it. It starts but just kinda keeps spinning or something for a couple seconds then goes away. It's on my 93 any ideas?

It's NOT illegal. It's just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.

the last time i had the problem you mentioned i wired my starter wires wrong on the solenoid
it would stick for a sec then disengage. if you have a mini starter i would google a diagram just to
make sure [patriot]
