@MoleEddie – How come only 5 stacks on the engine? Where is the car located? Why so much noise when car cranks fly wheel not aligend properly. ...
If you look at the other engine pictures there are 8 stacks for sure .. the high output starter is certainly noisy I do not believe it is an alignment problem
