Starter shims

[Zoomina34]

The old broken starter i took out had one shim that was about a quarter inch thick. The new starter came with two shims, both as thin as paper almost. Which ones do i use?

I would say use the old shims, since you know that that will work.

I would too.

Id say no shims at first, see if it scratches and disingauges, dont wanna use more then u need because the teeth on the flywheel wont like ya for long

Werd. When I did the starter on the GP, I used no shims at first. It sounded like crap, so I used the shim provided. Sounded a ton better, but still could use a little more help, so my dad made another one for me that was .010 thickness. Made a ton of a difference.
