The car started fine and I drove about half a mile. When I was coming to a stop the car made a strange noise and cut out. I tried to start the car and it made a sound like a bad starter. I waited a few minutes and tried again. The car started, but it wasn't a normal start. It was like it barely caught. When I got it home I cut it off and tried to start it again and I got the same sound of a bad starter. Later the car started fine, but it doesn't start like it normally does. I suspect a bad starter, but the fact that the car shut down on the road has me wondering if this is possible with a bad starter.
