Hello. new to 914world but owned many 914's since early 90's. Have a 73 2.0. purchased rebuilt starter and hot start kit. Installed. When restarting when engine is warm/hot. Starter and flywheel do not engage properly and grind. Takes about 3-8 turns of key before it "catches". Does not happen when cold. 1. What am I destroying? 2. How do i fix it? Thanks.

I have the same issue. pull your starter inspect flywheel teeth. When I bought the car it was this way. 7-10 starts are fine. Mine is getting worse. already have replacement flywheel . Waiting for it to get intolerable , at which point I pull tranny replace flywheel, clutch throw out bearing and clutch.
