Hello,
This year I am having problems with my starter not consistantly engaging. I have sprayed the top with some lube, but did not help.
About the 4th or 5th try turning the key it engages, the first 3 or 4 times the stater spins but does not lift up to the fly wheel, just spins, you can hear it.
Is that the sign of the starter needing replacement, or can I put a new spring in the starter to help it engage when turning?
