any tips for replacing '93 starter?


 

I spent about 3 hours removing and attempting to reinstall a rebuilt start on my '93 automatic.

Removal wasn't difficult, but I'm having trouble getting the rebuilt in place. I replaced the bushing, but can't seem to line up the replacement starter.

Any tips would be appreciated.

I've replaced that bushing -- it's a sintered metal designed to hold
lubricant and it's brittle -- and it can be difficult to R&R. Are you
sure the new bushing is in all right? Any little chip will prevent
the starter shaft from seating fully.


 

That may have been it. I deburred the rim of the bushing with a large screwdriver and now it's in and the van is running.

Thanks for the help!
