HELP NEW starter squelches!!!
New to me 80/ 5spd -
had to push start it for couple days checked: battery/cables/fussablelink/
put in new starter and now it starts but makes a nasty squelching sound every time
the fly wheel looked ok to me (not chewed up or anything)
Please tell me its not the fly wheel but a bad starter?!

mine did it the first time I put on the new factory starter. I think it just had to sink up with the teeth the first time, it has not done it since. If you battery is week it may not be sending enough juice to your starter.
