Solenoid Shift Electric Starter
The following subsection covers the solenoid shift electric starter. Much of the information in the proceeding
subsection relates to this type starter also, so it is not repeated here. A Nippendenso solenoid shift starter is used.
Operation (Solenoid Shift Starter)
When power is applied to the starter, the electric solenoid moves the drive pinion out onto the drive shaft and
into mesh with the flywheel ring gear. When the pinion reaches the end of the drive shaft, it rotates the flywheel
and cranks the engine.
When the engine starts and the start switch is released the starter solenoid is deactivated, the drive lever moves
back, and the pinion moves out of mesh with the ring gear into the retracted position.
