Starter whirring - won't start
Went out to start my truck this evening, starter just made a loud whirring sound like it wasn't engaging anything, just spinning freely.
Is there anything other than replacing the entire starter motor I can do, truck is stranded at school.

Larry B rebuilt kit and you might get lucky and have it engauge by tapping it with a hammer with someone turns the key

Hit the starter with a hammer or flat tow it in neutral to a place to work on. Doing it in the parking lot isnt going to be fun

You dont have to get contacts from Larry B - although his are the supersize version....You should be able to get contacts from an electrical parts/starter shop

Found the problem... sadly I feel stupid, it was pouring the rain so I forgot to check... the starter bolts had rattled out.. and it was hanging / like that, not making contact.. tightened it up and it was fine!
I hate bad weather.
