Hi Brian. Go Westy has a video for many installs.  Check their website to see if that helps.  Also they do not mind answering questions on the phone in the least. Hope that helps. Dave B. On Tuesday, April 21, 2026 at 08:35:49 AM EDT, moondog <moondogkayaks@zoominternet.net> wrote:

I haven't received the starter yet, but I'm confused about the limited instructions and I've found so far.

What's that long screw all about?  Is it meant to be temporarily installed to help you align the new starter?

.Then replaced by a shorter screw into the tapped hole in the starter flange from the opposite direction?

This is the $150 "GVW-PMS-MT-BNDL" starter, not the upgrade one with the adapter flange.

Also, are there any pitfalls in the cable hookups?

Thanks All
