I was going through the starter today that will go on my Acadian. New drive, bushings, solenoid etc. I see a threaded hole that is wide open in the main housing. I put a stubby 5/16" bolt in it, just to plug the hole. I see no purpose for it. Anyone know what it is for? It's the shiny head bolt near the end of the solenoid (the end the electrical attatches to).

can't quite see it carl, but is that where the brace bolts to for a 6 cyl. application? it looks like a light duty starter, short winding, straight across bolts for small flywheel.
It is the light starter, yes. But I thought the brace always went on the end bolt, the one with the stud sticking out, which is always on top. I don't think I've ever seen the brace mount directly to the main body. Always a first time though.
