I pulled mine about a year ago and replaced with Oriely 65 buck special. It is special alright. Within the first month or two I noticed it was not fully engaging the flywheel and started skipping off the flywheel gear. I know the flywheel is fine old starter just died never had that issue not once. Now I still have the cheap starter installed, but it's gotten worst. Takes 2-3 tries to get it to engage, and it better crank quick cause the piece of crap starter disengages after about the first revolution.

Not looking forward to replacing it again either just been dealing with it. Won't be putting another OrEiley special back in that's for sure.


I'm going to try to fix mine, or install a new solenoid if I have to. Or, get it rebuilt locally by a reputable shop for about $90 if I can't fix it myself. Gotta get the cash together for that first.
