92 4.9 starter replacement

Remove this ad
I just replaced the starter in my 92 deville. It kind of engages and clicks. It sounds to me like it's binding up. I assume I need to shim it. Would I use a standard feeler guage for this? How do I make the starter gear engage the flywheel without turning the key or apply a current to the starter. I know that would not be a good idea. I bought a duralast starter from autozone if that makes any difference. Thanks.
