Starter bolts

[Todd8665]

Plan on having my starter rebuilt; now that spring is coming... There seems to be considerable slop/play in my 19 mm box end wrench on the starter bolts. Anyone else run into that?

If the starter can't be rebuilt look online for the OffSetGear reduction type. Match the spline, bolt pattern, and gasket size. Usually the OSG types are a little bit stronger and beefier, thus cold starting is way better.
