Subject: Starter won't work.

My starter drive gear thrust forward and engages the flywheel but fails to
turn over the engine. Any of you more mechanically inclined guys have a
guess as to what my problem may be? (It's a rebuilt starter)

Can you turn the engine over by hands on the ring gear?
One rotor could be one tooth off on the phasing gear.
Make sure the right spark plugs are in there.

Put a  voltmeter on the brush connections.
If the starter wire is too small too much voltage
will drop across the wire.

Send a sketch of the wire sizes and a schematic on how
it is wired.
