If this all started with the starter replacement I would suspect that the bendix is wrong. With the starter off, check to see that the bendix moves forward (toward the housing) when powering up the starter. Not sure what you mean by "running the same old starter for years" yet you are now a 12 volt starter or 12 volt battery? If battery was changed to 12 volts make sure your polarity is correct.
