Re: [AMC-list] Replaced the starter in a 232 and it's not engaging...

Hi- Do you still have access to old starter? If so ;check location of  
starter bendix  verses rebuilt. I have found that cheap aftermarket starter  
some times don't hit where they are suppose to. Next trick is try one or two  
washers and see if that helps. If not ; return starter and get old one and 
take  to rebuild shop and have it rebuilt if you can't get one to match old 
one.   You might try molding clay on bendix and hand turn engine over gently 
and  see where bendix is hitting. Could be starter is a dud. Take care and 
GOD  BLESS   FORDMANTED out of Wi from Houston ,TX.

I  replaced the starter on the 232 and it's not engaging (every time).   
When I pulled the old one off, there were no shims.  I took a look at  
the flywheel teeth and from what I saw, they were fine. Is there a way  
to adjust the starter?  Suggestions?
