wont crank
tried starting my truck today and the starter is clicking but wont turnover? i took a look at the starter and it looks to be covered in dried antifreeze residue from what i can tell theres no hose leaks. is my starter bad? i replaced it last year i havent started the truck since last year been sitting. also where could the leak be coming from?

Unless you spayed it down with something, its definitly got a leak cause it is was to wet above it. Looks like dried anti-freeze to me

thats coolant...check the back of the head for leaks and also the intake gasket near distributor
if those are fine than i would check the core plug near the starter. you will need to try and remove the inspection cover and look for anyother leaks, plus clean it out
