  1. Disconnect motor lead from solenoid. Pull pinion out by hand until it contacts stopper, and measure distance between housing and nose of pinion. Energize solenoid, and measure distance between housing and nose of pinion. See Fig 1.
  2. Difference between these measurements should be .012-.079" (.3-2.0 mm). If measurement is not as specified, remove solenoid, and install appropriate adjusting plate between solenoid and starter housing. See Figure. Adjusting plates come in 2 thicknesses, .010" (.25 mm) and .020" (.5 mm).
