<VV> OIL FILTERS AND STARTER SNOUTS

[Frank DuVal]

Typically the broken starter nose is a bad flywheel. But not always...

If the second starter  nose breaks, then it is time to pull the engine 
out and check runout of the flywheel and pressure plate.

Noses are available (or at least they were gggg).

I recently broke the snout on my starter and after a "fishing" expedition with a flexible grabber, I was able to retrieve the broken piece from the bottom of the bell housing. What could cause the snout to break? I converted this car to a four speed two years ago and purchased a rebuilt flywheel and pressure plate from Corvair Underground.
