Hey guys, have a 93 buick skylark custom with a 3.3 litre. Replaced the starter last night. The starter seems to work fine (AutoZone Duralast Replacement). My problem is when the starter engages the flywheel it doesn't disengage, yes it makes a awful sound. I assumed that maybe the shims they included were needed, they gave me three. Tried using one, two then three all with the same results. Yes a four hour starter job. I'm no certified mechanic, but I have replaced a few starters in my time (in short I have owned alot of cars that most people would junk). The starter just won't disengage from the flywheel. So my questions are, is my starter defective? Do I need more shims? Or, is there a more common solution that I am missing? Need to get this care back on the road quickly, any help here would be greatly appreciated, In advance thanks to you all.
