Re: [Chrysler300] 300E starting motor issues

Did they reinstall the Alignment Dowels in the block?   They often get
overlooked but are necessary to align the transmission with the block.  If
not aligned you will experience starter problems like you are, or starter
not engaging depending on what way it is misaligned.  Another problem is
converter bolts hard to start.  What say you?

Really going to miss Carmel meet. I think this Eeeek! is still haunted.
Starter stuck in ring gear last fall & partially disassembled to get it
released, then off to storage. Located rebuilt starter & installed last week
 Old starter was "groaning" when 1st hit key, then speed up till motor
caught. So thought windings were gone-20 yrs old. But started fine this
spring. New starter also groans & then speeds up & it starts when cold. When
hot, barely cranks over, doubtful if it will start sometimes. Motor has
about 400 miles after full rebuild. One suggestion is timing needs to be
backed off a bit, which I haven't tried yet. Any other ideas out there?
Thanks.
