The starter drive engages the starter's pinion gear with the engine's flywheel ring gear during cranking, then releases once the engine starts.
A starter that spins or whirs without cranking the engine, grinding during engagement, or inconsistent engagement are signs a starter drive may need replacing. Other starting-system faults can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If a worn drive is the problem, SDN-8 replaces it.
