Help with a starter motor
« on: June 24, 2013, 07:50:22 PM »

Guy's

Trying to help out a mate with a J20, the starter motor is playing up. It will spin but won't engage. I have pulled the thing apart to see if there was anything jamming it or loose but all seems fine. It will spin happily and at good speed but won't pull the arm down to engage drive. I think its got to be something to do with a lazy magnetic pull? or is there something else. Any help appreciated
