Dean,
Thanks for the heads-up.  Just had mine apart for a new pinion gear.  It will come out again to locktite the allen bolts.

        Over the past 6 month's I have had 3 different Triumph's to have the 2 allen head bolts that hold the Adapter block to the starter motor to come loose. The first was a friends TR3 starter and then the starter on my TR4 race car and yesterday the starter on my street TR4. These are Allen head metric bolts about 2 inches long. Is there an epidemic going around my area? Put these back in with red loctite. Hope that does it. Getting fast at taking starters out. Check and see if your's are loose before they fall out.
