    Maybe your flywheel is striped or come loose. Does the bendix engage? If not, Check the little wire going to your starter for a good connection.

    Hi, Ronda...sounds like either you have some teeth missing from your starter ring, or you got the wrong starter. Missing teeth are a common problem.

    Hope this helps you out.
