Hi all, looking for some advice on a starter issue...here goes. I inherited this tractor, 686 gear with a 312 D...1978, according to the SN#. Two years ago, previous owner replaced the starter...the brushes and such were simply worn out. The starter was exchanged at a local re-builder and the core is gone. The replacement starter wont engage the ring gear, all measurements have been taken...the Bendix hits the flywheel ring gear and grinds but wont engage. This is the 3rd rebuilt starter and none will engage. Last week, I ordered a re-manufactured starter from local IH/Case dealer...same problem. Ring gear is in great shape, starters bench test fine, pinion depth engaged and at rest are correct. All 3 starters have a 10 tooth 1.255 inch drive diameter with the rotation of CCW. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
