Hey all,
I have a 70 1202B, 200 ci I6 ford industrial engine. What is happening, randomly it won't start, the bendix spins but does not engage the flywheel. I have been told this is a common feature with ford motors. I carry a stick that I can tap on the starter. After a few taps it will engage and start. It has been recommended not to get a rebuilt starter and go new. There are a lot of rebuilt ones out there but new is kinda scarce around here. So, any suggestions on what to get and possible locations to source one? By the way, this cat has the manual transmission.
Thank you for suggestions,
ra
