Quick question. When turning the ignition key, I hear the starter motor spin, but it does engage to the fly wheel (high rpm electric motor noise only).
I took the starter motor out and connected it to an external starter pack (battery). the starter drive spins, but the sprocket does pop out of the starter housing.
Before I take it apart, is this a common problem with the motor, and how can I resolve this issue (if at all).
Does it have to do with the drive actuator lever?
Quick response much appreciated as I need to drive to the Keels-Wheels exhibtion near Houston early Tomorrow morning.
(Hopefully it is an easy problem, but I never came across this before)
