has anyone had isues with the starter motor hitting the flywheel or not engaging, i got a delco remy starter off a manual vn series 1, but its looks to be about 1mm to close to the fly wheel thus not alowing the gear to engange. should i try another starter or have i been given the wrong one. i tryed to move it a around but you cant shift it at all.

just about to finish auto to manual conversion.

almost every part this guy has given me has been wrong so far :( except the gearbox it self

anyidears?

the end pink plug ( theres PINK PLUG. PINK PLUG. BLUE PLUG.) so the outer Pink plug has the violet/white wire at C5. You ned to remove the plastic locking clip before you can see it.in very small writing it will show the numbering order 1 to 16. cont across 5 pin positions from the 1 side and it will have the violet/white wire which is the Auto speedo pulse signal out. the other row of the same plug is the D side and also shows the numbering 1 to 16. It will have D written on it too at the edge of the plug. Again you have to remove the pin locking clip to see it easier. The D2 position is blank.

I had the same problem with the gearbox and starter from a VN,. When I pulled the starter motor out there was an L shaped bracket on top of it it is about 2 or 3mm thick and about 1cm wide when I put that bracket on problem solved, a couple of washers about 2mm thick would do the trick.

I have just done this conversion and I sent my ecu to a guy on the gold coast, he remapped my ecu to manual and all I had to was connect the blue/white wire to the purple wire on the speed sensor and hook the reverse lights up as above and bingo no engine light and speedo works a treat. Cost me about $90 from memory.
