You really need a gear reduction starter for the Subaru engine.  GW sells
one, and you can also use the VW TDI starter with an adapter from Karl
Mullendore: http://westyventures.com/parts.html (scroll down).   Either way
they will be delayed if you want a lasting fix.  Otherwise find a used stock
starter and hope for the best.
