I'm guessing you did not get a NEW Bosch starter...

Or the ring gear is really messed up. See if you can take pictures of the ring gear when you remove the starter.

While cranking the starter, I have never seen the tach register a reading on the W123. Your's is an anomaly. Isn't there a load reduction relay while cranking and isn't the tach one of the items on it (purpose is to cut out unnecessary loads while starting, like the radios, blower etc. I don't think the 1000 rpm reading is related to an unengaged but spinning starter. They are separate issues. The tach pickup is on the harmonic balancer. How do you explain an unengaged starter making the tach read 1000 rpm? Wouldn't the crankshaft have to spin at 1000 rpm for that to happen? I'd suggest: 1. Check and tighten starter motor elec connections. Don't overtighten! It's studs are on plastic! 2. Take out the tach amp and clean the contacts. If 1 & 2 does not cure the problems. Take out cluster and clean the circular connector contacts and check and tighten cluster grounds.

If this is a '92 300D, there's an inductive rpm sensor right by the starter.

Oops, didn't read his sig. It is a 92. Can you describe the pickup and trigger location?

This is a picture of a 603.970 but the 602 has identical positions for starter and rpm sensor, the smaller hole in the oil pan below the starter -
Sensor wiring could very well be touching the starter motor case. Sixto 87 300D |

Thanks for the pic. Looks like the trigger is on the flywheel? Sensor wiring should be insulated shielded cable. Even if the insulation is worn and the shield (ground) is touching the starter motor case (also ground), it shoud not cause the tach to act funny.

That's why I hypothesized the ring gear is slipping on the driven plate. Should be able to observe this with the car on ramps. Or fit a flywheel locking tool and spin the crank puley.

A loose ring gear has a horribly unique sound. I honestly hope you never hear this sound. .

Hey sorry for the long time no response. But the last starter's symptoms were that the solenoid would pop out, but it would not spin. I got my starter at O'Rilley's because I had a warranty there, so no charge. When I took the new one out I had it tested at O'Rilley's and it tested fine, but if it is the bendix clutch, how can I tell for sure and prove that it's not working? That seems to me to be the most probable thing.
I'm not super concerned about the tach reading, because it only does that when the starter is spinning, but not turning the engine. If it starts the engine then there's no tach reading.
