Starter Bendix Hanging up

Recommended Posts

edwroy

Have C 195 - the bendix is hanging up which means the starter spins but doesn't engage. Took the starter off and cleaned with CRC brake cleaner. Still hangs- suggestions?

 

Thanks,

 

Edwory

I would take it apart and see if I could fix it. It is no good to you the way it is right? If you can't then I guess you need to find a replacement.

Sounds like a teardown, clean, grease, while at it clean up commutator, grease end bearings, verify no canting during operation with load

Check and see if the starter bushings are bad, I have had 3 of my Kohler twins have this problem. There is a aftermarket company you can get the rebuild kit with bushings.

You will not get the bushings in a Kohler kit, It has to be aftermarket

Do you have a link for the aftermarket kits? Would save time searching...
