I figured that I would pass this along, anytime a key and a keyway is involved, I like rub a little Dielectric grease on the crankshaft and its corresponding piece. Such as a harmonic balancer or a riding mower clutch. I find it a lot easier to persuaded into its final position. This is not meant to be criticism in any way. Because once again, you did a Great Job!
Amazing how fast they turn over on 6 volts when everything in that system is to specification, (sorted) as this one clearly is. Nice even compression too. Ya gotta want it
I noticed the 1 wire alternator conversion. Typical when converting from 6v to 12v. With time, it will do it again. Worse it will damage the ring gear on the flywheel as well. Good luck.
Bendix replacement is one thing that is actually easier on a Model T Ford - You don't have to remove the starter, just the Bendix cover on the back side of the engine. :)
Thanks for a clear explanation of this repair. 👍
what a clean engine! Nice job. Thanks for sharing!
Good info. Last time I did that, I had a heck of a time getting the spring to line up to allow the second screw into its hole. Yours was much easier

Thank you. I'll try that next time.

Very cool! Do you have a shop in LA?
Nice repair. Good that parts are relatively cheap.
Great video. Thank you!
haven't had to do that yet but I'm sure my turn is coming. Thanks for the info.
Great fix. Thanks for sharing
I need to do the same on my Ford. Looks easy enough
Great job.

Good point. I'll keep that in mind if I ever convert it to 12 volts.

Job well done
great video. no fuse on starter?
Nope. I've had problems with those, so I don't use them.
If you want to know how to break your Bendix starter really easily, advance the spark a lot before you start the car.
