From my measurements of flange positions, pinion length and throw, I reckon a 10mm flat spacer should work with a 76mm hole. Where did you get your counter sink M12 bolts?
Cheers all the help.

did it look like the one above in the end or did it have a smooth section on the pinion after the teeth?
i ordered them from my local permafast bolt place they didnt have them in stock but got them for me next day  _________________ 1964 rat 13 window deluxe 1Z tdi,

Yes, the starter looked pretty much the same, the only visible difference was the motor end cover is steel not alloy.
I couldn't get any counter sink bolts locally or mail order quickly, but I managed to bolt the starter on without the bolt heads interfering. The starter motor solenoid is a bit closer to the floor than it could be, but it works for now!
Cheers

| I tried to mount the old diesel starter today on my TDI. But the starter locked the flywheel. Is the TDI flywheel too tight for the old starter? |

Found some info at greaseworks:
Bosch SR28X rebuilt starter fits all stock diesel Vanagon bellhousings, 1.6, 1.9, 1.9TD, 1.9TDI.
Can be used with stock diesel Vanagon flywheel/pressure plate/clutch disc, or with slight mods (grinding on nose cone of starter) with the 1Z or G60 flywheel/press. plate/228mm WBX disc. Gear reduction motor for more revs with a smaller/lighter motor. This is the preferred starter for any 50* TDI Vanagon conversion. VW p/n: 068 911 023 DX, Bosch p/n: SR28X.
Why do I keep finding answers for my questions right after I've posted them?
Anyway, I might create a adapter for the TDI starter later on. |

I'm looking in to whether there are any starter upgrades for the petrol bell housing / 130 tooth flywheel. I've read on other sites that a TDi starter can be made to work with the petrol bell housing / ring gear. I hope that's right, as it has a self supporting pinion, so gets rid of the need for the bush in the bell housing, but I'm not convinced.
The 130 tooth petrol flywheel uses a 9 tooth pinion on the starter.
I'm no diesel expert, but I believe the 132 tooth TDi flywheel uses a 10 tooth starter pinion? The photo's in this thread show a 10 tooth starter pinion too.
Maybe there is also a 9 tooth pinion (the same size as the petrol T25) used on some TDi's? I imagie some of you TDi / VW inline 4 conversion experts on here will know? Thanks, _________________ Regards,
