Pretty cheep part for peice of mind! Ive gone through 43 OEM starter clutches and a clutch basket before I went aftermarket and all is good now. Its my opinion that the OEM comp gives those starter clutches hell. Do you have the SE comp yet?

No, the engine is as it came from the factory other than exhaust and intake. I am looking through my service manual to learn what to do next, I am really not looking forward to removing the starter.

Oh and take a good look at AllBalls starter clutch. Its pretty good. And if you are getting the dredded starter bang at start up look at the SE compensator.

Back. Start a new thread for any tips for changing the starter. Will help you quick reference your own thread. Pics are good too for those contemplating doing this job themselves.
