1971 TR6, the gear on the starter will not engage with the ring gear on the flywheel. The starter gear does fully extend when energized on the bench. For some reason, even when it is fully extended, it will not reach the flywheel gear. This is an aftermarket hi torque starter. Didn't have this problem with the OE starter. I haven't tried to energize the starter while it's wired in the car but not bolted to the bell housing to see how far the gear extends. Any ideas? Thanks, Bob
