My 7.3 has been having a rough time starting almost ever since i got. And just recently it completely quit on me so i decided it was time to get some new stuff.
Started with cleaning out the bank account with 2 new batteries. Truck finally starts! Woo!
Still cranking very.. Very slow soo cleaned out the bank again and got me a new starter!
Took the old one off found out it was a gear reduction starter.... Sorry for all you fans of them but i was not impressed.
By this point im super excited to get my new starter one and really see this thing pop right off.... Yeah... Easier said then done.
Took forever to get the damn thing in cuz it just didnt wanna fit right. Now its finally in! The bottom 2 bolts cranked tight.. Everything hooked up all wonderful.. Get in turn the key and all i hear is the starter.. Not turning my truck over.
***. The top bolt is in and semi tight but thats a real ***** to get to.
Why would it not be starting? Does anyone else have a rough time getting a starter in? I'm starting to wonder if Advanced sold me the wrong one....
