Question about 1984 GMC C1500
Hello,
There are a couple things that can make starters noisy. Check the flywheel teeth for worn or damaged teeth. Next check the nose cone bushing on the starter. Alot of remanufacturing plants or Shops don't replace bushings. I have encountered this many times and it's fairly easy to do. The nose cone is the aluminum end ov the starter. you remove the solenoid and the two bolts at the back of the starter and the nose cone will come off.once it is off look at the very end of the nose cone and notice the bushing if worn will be oblong in shape. A new repair kit is less than $20.00 from auto zone and includes bushings and brushes and bendix gear.
I know cause I just used one of their kits to rebuild my starter.
