Hi all, had some issues with starter on my Ulster rep at Lakeland trials. Think I've rectified the issue (poor connection) but when I removed starter motor yesterday I'm now wondering if it should have a "hair spring" to help the pinion go back into the resting place and then be held in place by tension of the 2 clips on side. I bench tested it and it does move quite freely but I think it should have a spring to help pinion go back although there is very little shoulder to hold it in? I think it should go where pen is indicating.
The alternative method I guess would be for flywheel to throw it back when it starts and tension on clips holds it there?
I'm not that familiar with starters of this age!
any ideas if it should have a hair spring and if it does where can I get one!!!?
Its a CAV and only other number on casing are. 10402 and 531
