The flywheel is fine. The starter failed by not turning and up until
then it worked perfectly so there was no chance to mess it up. The
nose bu****ng sounds dead on because I noticed it was not replaced,
figured they found it was in spec and they didn't see the need to
change it. That just might be the problem. Thanks a lot.
