Went to start my car after having injector issues and now my car cant turn over because of this
^This was starter #2 after swapping out the original one I've had running the last 6 months. After replacing my #3 injector I went to start the car and heard "CLANK" , the car didnt start. I took of the starter and reinstalled it and got the exact same results.
So I tried the second starter and got the same results again. At that point I had grabbed a breaker bar and 27mm and tried to see if the motor spun free, and obviously ripped a chunk of my starter off.
So please I would like other people opinions before i throw it all back together.
I drove the car on 3 cylinders home from work this one occasion and I've never had a problem with the starter/flywheel untill now . The flywheel honestly isnt damaged or bent, the motor spins freely and I've got the one more working starter, So I want to put it back together but I want experienced opinions first.
And I never had a shim on my starters before when it was working ,does anybody else have shims on their starters? And I didnt replace pilot bearing when i put the clutch on last time could this be the problem?
And BTW I pulled this motor out in one day by myslef IN DIRT.
