Re: starter drive sticking
Finally got Frankie in to change the starter . I put the oem starter back in with a new solenoid on it . Tomorrow night is going to be quite cold so I will know Thursday if I got it fixed for good . The aftermarket one I took out turns out had no gasket between the solenoid and the housing . The new solenoid came with 2 gaskets and 2 spacers . I didn't need the spacers , but used one gasket on each one . You can see some corrosion from water getting in on the aftermarket one . I will bench test it after leaving it out in sub zero temps to see if it will work as a spare .

Re: starter drive sticking
Nothing I just wanted to make sure the starter would work below freezing again .
