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.

Mine is not heat related. I pulled started gear was fine. With a mirror and flashlight i rotated the engine lookong at flywheel. Visual onspection revealed teeth damage. U can also rub your finger on the edges of teeth. Car not running of course
