Hi,
I new to this forum but looking for some advice. I recently bought a '79 W72 that was having trouble with hot starts so I replaced the old starter with a mini-starter from Summitt. Works great but due to the smaller size of starter, the original flywheel cover now has a gap leaving the flywheel exposed to the elements. Curious if anyone else has noticed this problem with an aftermarket starter and how they fixed it. Any help appreciated...
