Starter issues - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Is the starter going south when it won't engage with the engine on initial startup? It makes a grinding noise like the teeth haven't engaged the motor. On the second or third attempt, it'll engage and the LT5 roars to life. Could low voltage also cause this. I only have 11K miles on this starter. Thanks for your help. BTW, on my previous posts (issues), the ticking sound from the bottom end is gone. She's all waxed up for the spring and other than the starter issue, is ready to rumble....
