The biggest problem Ive experienced with these starters is dead spots on the brush contacts. The result of this is that if your started stops on a dead spot, you cannot get it to turn unless you can spin it or sometimes beat on it. Ive had this problem with a 'new' rebuilt Bosche starter as well.

To set up a remote starter switch, you contact the big threaded stud with the big black wire going to it to the little male spade lug with I think a yellow wire going to it. I bought a button type switch and some alligator clips and wired a switch up. This will bypass the ignition system and may tell you if you have too big of a voltage drop across your ignition switch. This switch masked the problem of dead spots on my starter though, and I didnt realize it until Id gone through the entire system and replaces all types of parts. At least I have a new ignition system now!

Good luck!
