Starting problem
Hey everybody-new to the site. An awesome one it is.
My starter keeps eating off the teeth on my ring gear every 3-4 months. I've replaced several of them(both) with what the parts store considers matching. The flywheel is not warped. I've tried installing the starter with the washers on the bolts and without. The problem is that the starter doesn't seem to be seating all of the way on the ring gear. It chews up the front half when sliding in on the flywheel. Is this a common fix. Could my crank be moving? I greatly appreciate any help. Thanks
My grandfather, mom's side, drove a 39 Plymouth coupe when I was about 4 or 5 and I thought it was pretty cool and I loved the tail fins on the 49 Cadillac. I drew cars when I was in the 5th and 6th...
How did you get hooked on cars?
