ive changed the flywheel once. and put 3 different starters on it. all of em just grinded the flywheel to hell so i got this one. and it finally caught the flywheel and started the truck about 10 times. it grinded a little before it started up everytime but now the starter wont even pop out and cetche the flywheel. how do i fix the starter to where it pops out.
