funniest thing...disconnected the battery,pulled the starter,all looks to be in good cond...the starter is new.some small shiny bits on ring gear but no glaring troubles....hooked it back up and all is quiet again....got me stuffed. one thing i did notice....when hooking battery back up i was leaning through window....well the cd player kicked in and i got a boot through my stomach....
VET-005:
You have to be careful with those gear reduction starters as they need to be shimmed to get the right gap between the starter gear and the ring gear. This is a bit tricky but if not done correctly it will end up stripping teeth of the starter and ring gear.
Thats why it is much easier and a hell of a lot less trouble just to use the OEM starters. They just bolt right in and no hassels.
