Re: Starter problem HELP!

Do you still have your original starter? When I put a reman Remy on mine not long ago the nose cone was garbage. It was definatley a brand new cone but was mismachined. It fit right in but the bolt holes were off to the point only 1 bolt would start. The nose on these are critical because they are what sets all the dimensions instead of shims. The only other thing I can think of is that the mounting pad is dirty causing the starter to not fit flush against the bellhousing. Like another poster said my initial thought was a broken or chipped tooth on the flywheel. I have had old flywheels where the teeth looked like a 45* cut was on them that still didn't grind.
