The Starter is a complex component of the GMC Envoy that is needed to transform electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy in an effort to crank the engine. It works by means of an externally mounted solenoid that is connected to the battery to turn the starter motor. In the starter, there is a rotating armature which by acting on the field coils or permanent magnets offers the required torque. The starter drive meshes with the engine fly wheel when the ignition is on, it has an overrunning clutch that releases when the engine starts. Through the recent past, different kinds of starters have been used on GMC Envoy cars such as the gear reduction types to improve on efficiency. Although originally designed for use on standard engines, OE starters may not fit high compression engines especially if the latter needs a special type of starter in order to avoid kickback and subsequent failure. The changes in the type of starter technology indicate that the current cars require a starter that will last longer and at the same time, come with some efficiency.
