Title: Starter issues
Post by: goin_up_river771 on May 31, 2019, 04:38:39 PM

Having a little trouble getting my starter to engage properly. It’s an IMI high torque top mount starter on a Imco bbc 4 point mount. Makes a nasty noise when starting and likes to spit off the starter gear spring and clip after running for a while. Thank you in adavance

Mine did that after several years. Not chronic. I did however had to have my machinist re fab the mount because it was off by .030.  Take a pic at some angles of how it’s mounted and post.
