car makes grinding noise when starting

Postby paul219 » Wed Jul 30, 2008 1:57 pm

My partners car when startin up after being stood for a while refuses to start. On pressing the start button it makes a what can be discribed as a grinding noise. To get the car started you have to hit the revs quite hard straight away and loads of gray smoke bellows from the exhaust. The car also lacks power. Anybody help :banghead
