Starter motor not disengaging


Recommended Posts

Evening



Start of the week I had the bright idea to change my gearbox from a C154 to a C52. Took a couple of days but it's all back together now and as far as I can tell the gearbox itself is working properly. My problem is with the starter, which seems to be permanently engaging the fly causing all kinds of horrible noises, not to mention smoke above 1.5k rpm. I didn't actually take the starter out of the car when I was changing the box, I just unbolted it and left it plugged in with the bigass ring connector held on by a 12mm bolt on the back of it. Is it fragile enough that that might have damaged it? And if not, any ideas what it could be?



Cheers,


Josh
