Hey all, I hope someone can help me with my problem. I just finished doing an engine swap in my 1996 Eclipse GST. The engine I just installed happens to be an engine that came off a Lancer Evo III imported from Japan. This is the 6-bolt cyclone engine with the yellow-headed 510 injectors and so on...now, the problem I'm facing is that when attempting to crank it up, I can hear the starter gear coming out and spinning, but it's not enough as to engage the flywheel and crank the engine up. I tried this with both a 2G starter and a regular 1G starter...does anyone know why this is happening? Am I going to need a starter off a Lancer Evo??? Any help is highly appreciated, I hope I can get rid of my problem soon. When push-starting the car, everything turns out to be great, it's just that the starter does not reach the flywheel teeth. Thanks.
