[Chevelle-list] Fw: STARTER

[Pelle Andersson]

B.T.W.

Three of my buddies on a Swedish Chevelle forum had the same/similar problem
and all of them got rid of the problem when they did the modification I
suggested. I believe it's one of the most common starter problems
which is actually a ignition switch problem!

  I had a similar/the same problem & used a relay between the starter & ignition switch!
  The problem in my case was that the ignition key switch didn't manage to deliver
  all the current needed by the starter solenoid!

  Make a temporary solution with a relay & a simple button in to the coupé
  to see if you have the same problem as i had?

  It's in the ignition key circuit you should do these mods.

    The starter works fine and no whinnying, that part is fine. The problem is that at times the gear on the starter comes out and hits the flywheel and will not engage the gears on the flywheel, I didn't make myself clear. Most of the time it has no problem, but at times  it will not engage the flywheel. At first I thought it was the solenoid but when watching from under the car I saw the problem. Even tried beveling the gears on the leading edge a little more on the starter, hoping it would help engage.

    Thanks, Darrell
