Spoman 1 #1 Posted July 14, 2018 Recently had a problem with the starter not engaging the flywheel. Turns out the mount itself broke off. Obviously, it'll have to be replaced or welded. Anyone have experience with this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarge 3,464 #2 Posted July 15, 2018 Never seen anyone break off the casting on a K482/532, ect. Must have been some gorilla with a 5lb hammer trying to get the starter to kick in on a bad armature or brushes - no excuse there. That's a pretty high torque spot on that casting, make sure you find someone really practiced on cast iron before letting them repair it. Sarge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
