Need quick car help....Figured out it's the starter but where's the starter? lol

[WHSLacrossekid]

I'm driving an older caprice because my Mustang is in the shop. When I turn the key it's just clicking..... It's happened before and my dad used to get under the car and hit something with a hammer and it would work fine then. Anyone know what I'm suppoused to hit?

WTF this always happens to me when I have to be somewhere!!!

Where the heck is the starter? I hate this car.....

umm, mebbe see if your headlights are dim before ya mess with the starter, a dead battery can cause the starter to just click in some situations.

 

[WHSLacrossekid]

The starter is on the lower side of the engine where it bolts upto the transmission.

I wanna see one of your turboed import engines move a lead sled like a V8 does.

Edit: Led for Lead, it's all that computer stuff.
