Neon starter advice needed

"What does it do" (or not do) when it/ they die? Pull in the solenoid, no crank? "Little click" from a relay? Anything? MAYBE it's not the starter(s) or at least not all of them

Only been under a Neon once, briefly. Exhaust/ EGR leak? Heating the starter?

Does it "sound weird" IE bad / damaged ring gear? Double TRIPLE check the mounting area that there is not some debri getting it out of alignment
