Default Also check the gear on the starter

Hi Gilles

There is also a difference in the starter gear to match the ring gear, there is a difference in the number of teeth on ring gear as used with 12 starter depending on year, and there is a corresponding difference on the gear on the starter.

But as ring gears can be changed, I've done it, you almost have to count the teeth.

Depending on how worn the gears are they may interchange but they may also have trouble engaging.

There is a old thread on MLU that I think has the tooth count.

Cheers Phil
