Since the cold weather has moved in, I have had great difficulty in starting the stique, usually the first 2-10 tries, I just get a screeching sound similar to that of the godawful noise made when someone attempts to re-start a vehicle that is already.

I'm guessing it would be the motor, the solenoid, or the flex plate based upon the forum archives, does anybody have a definitive answer to what the problem might be. I much prefer to do the repair myself if it's possible.

Thanks as always.
