Asked by Zilla
When I turn the ignition on in my 1997 Falcon Fairmont there is a clicking sound in the motor. My brother seems to think it's either the distributor or spark plugs?
Answered by CarsGuide
7 Nov 2017It won’t be the distributor or the spark plugs. If it happens when you turn the key to the start position to crank the engine it could be the starter solenoid.
