S10 pickup - engine won't start

It sounds like a bad starter. You can have the starter tested at a place such as Auto Zone or Advance Auto, but it needs to be taken off the vehicle.

It would help to know what kind of "won't start" you mean. Is it just ticking? Low battery voltage. Considering it started after getting your phone, probably not that. Is it cranking slow and not trying to catch (where it spins faster as the engine is firing but not fully catching and entering a run state)? Is there nothing at all, just shuts the accessories off and does nothing, no click, tick, hurk, jerk?

I had a Malibu that did not like starting too fast. As in if you flipped the key switch straight to start the fuel pump wouldn't pressurize properly or something. But if I turned it to on, gave it a second (you can usually hear when the fuel pump stops running once the system is up to pressure) then hit the starter it kicked over just fine.

I don't think they have a crank shaft position se 2.8 m Nleader

It can be the issue with weak battery or faulty battery or if battery is ok,then its faulty starter causing the issue.

If the starter is spinning when you try to start but doesn't spin the engine over then you most likely have teeth missing off the flywheel ring gear. The facts that you say you have to push it and then it starts means the flywheel position changes and the starter has good teeth on the flywheel to engage. To confirm this next time the engine won't crank over remove the starter and look inside at the flywheel for missing flywheel teeth.

98 chev pickup s10 put gas in the gas tank drove it about 2days and the check engen light came on had it check mech said it was the gas cap replace the gas cap the light back on now what help

A very common problem on the 99 S10 is a leaky fuel pressure regulator in the intake plenum.What happens is when the truck sits for a few hours or more the regulator leaks all of the fuel in the fuel injection system into the intake air plenum. This does 2 things, 1 it has no fuel pressure when starting and 2 it floods the air intake with raw fuel. Sometimes if you turn the key on wait 3 seconds then turn key off then turn key back on and just turn key to crank starter for a split second and wait 3 seconds.do this 3 times to repressurize fuel system then crank to start(you will hear fuel pump buzz each time you do this.also you may have leaky fuel injectors. Try to crank engine with the gas pedel to the floor. This will tell the computer to stop spraying fuel trhough the injectors and it will start. Joe ASE Master Tech

Sounds like the bendix is stuck in the starter. When this happens, the starter energizes and turns, but the gear does not kick out to make contact with the flywheel. Have someone tap on the starter while cranking the engine.
