Be cautious with starter bolts

Customer buys a ProTorque starter from a dealer, does not come with bolts. I go to the same store and ask for the starter bolts for ProTorque starter. I get 10-806343 2.
Install the first bolt and the starter is a bit loose.Verify the same with the second bolt. Only recourse was to add a washer from a drive mounting kit to actually have the starter tight.
Loose bolts lead to broken bolts or engine casting failure

A lot of times you have to improvise.
I have learned over the years the meaning of universal, it is made for everything, but fits nothing.
It's not always about making it right, it's about making it work.
Good job.
