Starter Disassembly
1. Remove flange nut and disconnect the braided
wire from lower main solenoid terminal.
2. Remove the two hex flange nuts securing the
solenoid, and carefully separate the solenoid
from the starter assembly (the front end of
solenoid must be lifted slightly to permit
disengagement from drive lever in starter). See
Figure 8-58.
Figure 8-58. Starter with Solenoid Removed.
3. Remove the two thru bolts.
4. Remove the commutator end cap from the starter
frame and the rubber insulating grommet.
5. Carefully remove the insulator and brush springs
from the brush holder.
6. Lift the four brushes out of their corresponding

retainer is positioned in a groove in the armature
shaft. To access the retainer, the stop collar must
be pushed back or down towards the drive
pinion. See Figure 8-61.
Figure 8-61. Starter Drive and Stop Components.
