Re: Dort Lycoming model K series engine - starter issues

Can you provide a few more details such as: Was it rebuilt by a shop that specializes in auto electric rebuilding? Recently or has it sat for a long time since rebuilding? Type of noise such as grinding or squealing? Does the drive gear make the noise when engaging or engaged? If the starter is removed from the car and tested on a bench, does it make the noise? Does the starter labour when turning over, either on the car, on the bench or both? Is the battery right up to full charge and not tired?
