Pinion Extension Length

  1. Disconnect "M" terminal lead from solenoid. Energize solenoid. Push pinion back by hand to remove slack, and measure distance between pinion and pinion stopper. See Fig 1.
  2. Clearance should be .020-.079" (.5-2.0 mm). If measurement is not as specified, remove solenoid, and install appropriate adjusting plate between solenoid and starter housing. Adjusting plates come in 2 thicknesses, .020" (.5 mm) and .031" (.8 mm).
