9N starter engages doesn't turn over engine.

9N66963-Finally got starter pulled out. Your helpfull hints were very useful. The starter gear is the older type with the exposed spring. It looks as though I am missing the retainer for the spring at the end of the gear. So its in the tractor. How do i get this out? Do i NEED to remove it? I believe it to be a 1" washer sized piece. Thanks soo much for the help. Also which starter gear should I replace this with?

If ya want it out.. you can go in with a magnet on a coathanger.. or a 3 jaw flexible grabber tool.. and fish it out.. but in general, there is a bit of 'storage' room down there for extra starter parts..

Leave it there.

Won't hurt a thing.

Don't worry about it. Henry made sure there was room in it so if and when that happened you could just replace the bendex and put the start back in and be good to go.
