Hi,
Is there a different way to describe the sound? I'm a bit lost when you say ink. Do you mean you hear a soft click? Could you hear the starter relay engaging?
Let me know.

Hi,
Could the starter be spinning but not engaging with the flex plate to turn the engine? If it is just the starter motor spinning, it could sound like hissing.
Is it possible for you to record what you hear and upload it for me to hear?
