A look inside the Bendix and how it works for a ratcheting starter.

- If your starter has had the Bendix pop down and not release. Then you have a ratcheting starter and this is how it works on the inside. You do not have to take it apart like we have. We did this just to show folks what it looks like. You can reverse the rotation of the starter and tap it with a wooden hammer to release the Bendix. Look at our videos, we do have one on how to accomplish that.
All the best,

Very helpful. Your step by step process and attention to detail was of great value to me. Thank you.
Awesome, I am glad it was helpful!
Thank you!
Mine is from a 1947 Ford 2N tractor that hadnt run in 20 years. Starter wouldnt spin Took it out of the tractor.
I wondered why the bendix would not spin all the way. I thought mine was broken. No parts store was open so I sprayed it with WD40 reassembled it and put it back on. And it actually worked.
Awesome, I am glad this helped!
this was awesome! Been looking for disassembly instructions for my drive that's off a Piper/Lycoming/Prestolite starter. It has 400 hrs in 35 years (~350ish cycles- replaced in 1987 at 857 hrs., now has 1260 hrs.) It sticks and takes 2 or 3 tries before it engages the flywheel. Everyone says to replace but I think it just needs cleaning. FWIW, Lycoming says to not use any grease, just spray silicone lube. Mine has the fine splines, not the wide ones like yours. I think the internals are just gummed up w/ west Texas dirt where it used to live before I bought it and brought to Dallas in 2021. Can the roll pin be reused?
The roll pin can be reused if it fits in tightly..
Fine Splines! That is a better terminology...I'm soaking mine in mineral spirits now but the silicone spray when reassembling sounds like an idea...since I have no graphite.
I don't have a roll pin...it's solid.

A pain in the eahs is putting this lightly. And that is being conservative.
Apparently I am one of those "PEOPLE" that realized the gear did not retract while trying to start a John Deere 1010 after a rod bearing change.
Yeah it took me about 30 minutes to find that first spring clip...then the second...and then...
Yup. The two coiled springs. Only one fell but was caught in my celled floor mat.
I did work out the functioning. The fact that the engine needs to start for the bendex gear to retract/return. But was baffled as to how the outer ring needed to be positioned before inserting on the splines. Mine has 4 times more splines.(The fine splines...Thanks Oldpuck...)
So I don't know if I want to pop those plugs out to replace the springs and plungers.
But it's on the armature shaft back by the lock pin is where I am also baffled...a circle segment key on the shaft...what is/does that do?
I appear to be missing it. And I didn't drop it...I checked my video taking it apart.
...
Watched that other video. My bendex points the other way.
I think some peoples thumbs are in need of some repair.
Yes sir they can differ a bit, but the basic design should be the same.. All the best, Bill
