[Shotimes] Starter Question(s)

Safest bet is to take it out and take it to a local rebuilder. Failing that,
take it out and count.

Subject: [Shotimes] Starter Question(s)

Well, here's the latest problem with my 1990 135K SHO.

The starter will spin but not engage the flywheel.  This happens
sporadically, and becoming increasingly more frequent - to the point
starting the car is a real pain when it's shut off after being warmed up.

My initial thought was solenoid, so I replaced that yesterday.  Problem
persists.  I guess it's starter time as the bendix must have gone south.

After doing some reading online, I noticed that there seem to be 9-tooth,
10-tooth, and 12-tooth starters.  (Kinda sounds like they're from
Arkansas...)  Do any of the gurus on the list know which one is correct for
a 1990 SHO?  And where's a good source?


As always, thank y'all for your help.

Rob
