Engine turn over noise.

So I need some help, I swaped in my crx hf motor (d15b6) and got everything wired and stuff, go to turn over the engine and i get a horrible noise. Can you please watch the video and tell me what it might be?

  • starter is not engaging flywheel perhaps? Just a guess.
  • hmm so would i just take the starter out and put it back in? or how would i fix that?

    Your battery sounds a bit weak too...That starter sure isn't spinning very fast. Try charging your battery a bit. See if that does anything for the sound.
  • Something between the starter and flywheel definitely, double check that your starter is installed correctly and visually inspect the gearing on your flywheel

    Sounds like a snapped timing belt or someone took/loosened your spark plugs.

    This was with a brand new optima yellow top i got.

    Flywheel is in decent condition, maybe its not reaching? cause I think this was an auto and i'm using the stock d15b2 tranny and starter.
    Could a z6 starter work as well?

    Sure hope it hasnt snapped. It was whole last time I looked at it lol.
    I'll check spark sunday, the only day i have somewhat free.
