I know it's the starter. I want to buy a new starter. I have a bushing that's JB welded to the bellhousing, so do I (a) buy a new/rebuilt starter for a manual transx bus and hope the bushing isn't off-center (which if so I understand will shorten the starter's life); or (b) buy a new/rebuilt starter for an auto transx bus, which doesn't require the bushing?Amskeptic wrote:That poor poor starter, you know it is the starter, that poor shrieking starter, let it rest in peace.
If (b), do I need to know anything about which bellhousing or flywheel I have? Is any modification to either the starter or bellhousing or anything else necessary to fit the autotransx starter in a manual bus?
We did not. Unless you did it when I wasn't looking.Amskeptic wrote:Did we bypass the hotstart relay while we enhanced the electrical paths under there?
