squirebill Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 My parts book shows two nuts on that stud.....one locks the stud to the starter housing, then the cable terminal is put on the stud and then another lock washer and another nut to secure the cable terminal. Sounds like you need another nut (5/16-18) and a 5/16 lock washer. I don't think the stud can fall into the starter...it may go in a little until it hits the armature assembly.

Is it held into place somehow? If the bolt is loose you will see it turn when tightening the nut. If it does drop in, well you were going to take the starter apart anyways. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OUTFXD Posted March 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 I think I figured out the riddle of the self loosening starter terminal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
