Hello to all
I have a question regarding my 1983 200 hp Evinrude(E200TRLCTD). The small gear on top of the starter motor is starting to look quite worn. It will still start and the flywheel looks to be perfect. My question is can just this gear be replaced or does the entire S.M. have to be rebuilt. Also do I have to buy a new spring and crimp ring ( don't know what the real name is ) or does it all come as a "kit". I do have a factory service manual but it is a little vague on this topic. Also is this a common problem or should I be looking for something that is just starting to become a bigger problem. Is the starter motor adjustable or is it fixed onto the block and you simply replace the gear as needed. I would like to have a spare if possible, on board. It is the prestolite starter I don't have the number with me but will get it tonight.
Thanks in advance, this site and all of it's knowledge is the BEST.
Regards Brendon
