Starter is spinning fine. If I un-stick the bendix gear, it works fine, till the bendix gear sticks again.
When the bendix gear is stuck, it is all the way to the rear of the bendix. there is a thin washer on the back (rear-ward) side of the bendix that looks as it is made of a fiber-like material. Seems like there is supposed to be a white felt-like washer somewhere in this area,but my starter doesn't have one. Maybe it pads the bendix so it doesn't get stuck.
Do I have to have the starter rebuilt to stop the problem ? Thank God it starts well on the crank !
