Onan JC Service Manual

Press on solenoid core to shift the pinion into full
mesh and measure the clearance between pinion and
pinion stop, Figure 60. This should be between
0.07-
inch and 0.12-inch (3.05 mm) (as near to 0.070-inch
[I .78 mm] as possible.) Adjust the link screw on the
end of the solenoid plunger for proper clearance.
On engines built before May 1962, it was necessary to maintain the
gap between ring gear and starter pinion in the relaxed position at
less than 1/8-inch to ensure starter engagement. When installing
these motors, check this gap.
If it is too great, a shim kit is available
to reduce it (Figure 61).
R
Required on some early models.
Be sure to install same number
of shims removed.
