Please help with this Starting Issue

[offroadvegan]

So, I rebuilt the entire motor last January, and rebaselined everything. New alt, starter, fuel filter, etc.

6 months in and the starter began to fail. I'd have to bang it to get it to start. Or get a jump.

So tonight I ended up replacing the starter. It was warrantied out. It's a reman from Oreilleys.

Install went well.

Until I tried starting it. First start worked great! Let it warm up a minute. Then I shut it off and tried again. NO BUENO. It does not sound happy.

See this video.

WTH is going on?

Thanks

Scott

PS. Pardon the dirty cruiser, went out in the forest last week.

Update....I did inspect the flexplate and do see some weird "shiny metal" marks on some teeth. Assuming that is the issue. Teeth I can see look good however.

And you found your problem...

Sounds just like the one I got from oreilly when mine crapped out on a road trip. Got a Denso reman from amazon. Been working great so far.

I never “fully” understood why so many people preached “OE parts” until I owned my first Toyota.....Now I’ll wait if they don’t have a OE part I need. No sense in doing it twice. Good luck.

So the Denso on Amazon has bad reviews too. Anyone know a good OEM source?

Oreilleys will be giving me money back on this.

@cruiserdan isn't the p/n 28100-66050? I found the 60 number was for 94-97 and I have a 93.

So I just pulled the starter I installed yesterday and looked at the gears. Looks like some weird patterns, but this is a reman, so I am not 100% these are from my issue.

Figured I'd post here for all to see.

Thanks everyone for your help. Reman OEM unit due on Tuesday. $313.00, as I cannot swap a core

That looks like the bendix gear was not going all the way back in

[cruiserdan]

@cruiserdan isn't the p/n 28100-66050? I found the 60 number was for 94-97 and I have a 93.

The 66050 is a one year only 2.2 kw starter. It is replaced by the 66060/66060-84.
