I don't know what your working on, but if you can get into it, put a socket on the crankshaft dampner bolt and try and turn the motor over.

Ok got the fkywheel turning via socket wrench ,but seems like my starter isnt turning it. Could it be i have a weak starter? I took it in to get it checked and they said it was fine but im having doubts. I took off the flywheel plate and can see the starter trying to turn the flywheel but it just cant do it. What now?!!?1?
