fortunately, my mini is OEM, and fits perfectly....and I dont have the index plate in at all. I'd start with some really skinny ones honestly, like 1/16ths

Have you done it to yours? If so, how many washers did it take and what size? I know all are different, but I just want a ballpark figure so I dont have to take the starter out anymore than I have to

^ he hit the nail on the head there. You need to shim it. What happens is the gear is gettin pushed out too far by the solenoid, and when power is taken away and it retracts, the gear is caught on the flywheel still. Just get some small washers and add one to each bolt until it stops. Starters are easy as hell to pop the 2 bolts outta.
