I am having starter problems. I am using a 6 volt starter (rebuilt) and when engaging it is grinding when the bendix hits the ring gear. I have a brand new ring gear and a brand new bendix on the starter. I have adjusted the starter all the way to the block and away from the block and everywhere in between and it still grinds. The only thing that I have done to this is changed the engine from 6 volt to 12 volt, but I am using the original starter. Could the bendix on the starter be turning too fast before it hits the ring gear? Everything is lined up perfect and I have no clue why is still grinding. Please help if you have any suggestions. Thanks!
