B&D, You are the only person to mention the magnet flux path was likely saturated before power exceeded 200%.
Good point, never thought of that.
The chip on tooth is recent, no rust.
If the starter had a solenoid to engage drive before applying power to motor like the old Chrysler starters, there may be no issue with chipping teeth.
The ford starter doesn't have a solenoid to pull drive in. Drive is activated by rotational inertia. The instant I pushed on the starter button the drive hit the ring hard. I could tell there was a major problem by the sound. This is the second drive. I replaced this drive about 2 years ago. Got drive from YT. Somehow the drive hit the backside to the tooth squarely and chipped off more than half of the tooth. The drive didn't damage the teeth on each side of the chipped tooth.
I really feel good about the new 12v starter. Sounds good. Runs slower like a starter should. Thanks. George
