But it sounded like the started was not quite fullly engaged. I turned off and started it up serveral times. I decided to adjust the started to move the gear closer to the flywheel by installing a shim on the outside bolt. When I tried again, nothing! The most it has done since then is rapid clicking, but not engaging or running. I don't think the issue is the battery, but I have it on charge now and will try in about an hour. I would be grateful for any suggestion.

hey man, your problem sounds like the starter, the bendix which is the gear that engages to turn the flywheel, may not be engaging all the way this will happen with reman parts , stick to delco- my wanna check the flywheel for teeth damage also.
