I’ve been wrestling with starter issues for weeks. First my Bendix broke. Got that fixed and leaned a lot about repairing starters! Now my starter button is in the frizz. It smoked a little a few times when I pushed it, then after that it would only work intermittently, and now not at all. Is this something that happens often? I ordered a new button from Lang’s for 38$ or so. It seems like the old one is rivitted into place so I’m not sure how I’ll swap it out. Any ideas? All of this is new for me but I feel like I am making progress and learning a lot!!!
