I got bored of counting teeth on the flexplate, so I took the nose off of the starter to expose the gear assembly that engages the flexplate. I then took my trusty crowbar and bent the shaft of the starter so that the gear meshed well (mostly well) with the flexplate when engaged. Doesnt work too bad except for a little metal shavings every now and then...sure beats counting though.
Why did I hear "Dooling Banjo's" When I read this???
