On my S10 Truck Extended Cab, when ever i try to start it lately it tries to start at first then the engine stops spinning and you can hear the starter still spinning, some times the starter spins without engaging the engine at all. After a few Tries the engine finally starts.
I think its the Drive Pinion, the little gear on the starter, however I don’t know if you can replace that separately or not.

Shim the starter if applicable.

In order to add pinion to ring gear clearance a full size shim must be used. Do not shim only 1 starter mounting bolt. There are 3 shims available in different shapes (for clearance). All are 1 mm (0.039 in) thick.
When you took off the old starter did you see any thin strips of metal ?
