Started some of the work on the winter rebuild and wanted to test another Tacho, however now thw starter spins but doesn't engage. Suspect the Sprag clutch. Ordered flywheel puller.
Got it apart and garter spring knackered so replaced it and re-assembled still the same. Took t out again and on closer inspection, the cage that holds it all together is broken due to rear on one side. The tabs on the circlip are supposed to be retained on the outer ring but these bits have worn off so circlip is not retained. Ordered new Sprag (freewheel clutch) £70 from Fowlers. Not taking chance on
Chinese Ebay jobbie.
