    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

this look right?

it's the starter parts i replaced in the starter clutch. since most of them were missing, this seems the logical order. the springs are inside the cups.

just wanna make sure before i put it back together tommorow.. i just spent over an hour honing one of the holes that the spring/cup combo go into, i believe that the fact the cup stuck in the hole was the reason for the failure.
 
great! it's supposed to be 50 this weekend. and if i can get the starter in, i'm totally gonna go for a ride! :D
 
well that was it. it works like a charm, fired right over even though it's been sitting for 7 months. after changing the oil and chasing it with a half gallon of kerosene, i strained the results and found most of the bits of the spring.. didn't find the whole little magnetic cup, but alot of little peices of it. based on the scratches i saw on the shaft the stator/clutch ride on, i think it somehow managed to get in there and get crushed?

i sure hope os. i looked around as much as i could, and tried to clean out as much of the case as i could. i wish i could have found more evidence of the cup, though would have been perfect if it dropped out of the oil whole. :p
 
if you want to be really 100% happy i would drop the sump plate off and check there is no more bits in there, also the metal strainer for the oil pump.
a lot of work maybe but piece of mind imo
