Kohler mag 12 horizontal.
I remembered last time out my helper pressure washed,
So I blew every electrical I could with air.
Now it's behaving better but I think this is not over.
There are several smalls to the sel.
I am assuming you mean the one to the switch?
Thanks for your time Steve.
I think you may have nailed it Stretch.
I got it to retract by throttling up.
Dealer starters are gold plated if even available.
Ones on am a zon are junk imo.
I'll figure something out here. Thanks guys.
I'll reply back WHEN I win lol.
I have some spray and will try that.
Went and looked at 2 parts tractors, no help, wrong model and years.
I might end up building one starter from two. The return spring on the drive "seems" weak. I have a dealer I can try in business hours.
Took starter off. It is AM and is clean and seems fine, Unlike OEM there are two 1/2" thick spacers that do not let it over retract.
Looks like they both would follow the drive and the second will sometimes fall down, not allowing the drive to retract.
I coated the first with silicone between it and starter base. Cleaned and Lubed spiral with teflon gun lube.
Helperman is reinstalling starter now and I'll let it sit a while before I try it.
Least that is my take. Thanks again.
If anyone has an oem starter for 300 series wheel horse I'd take it. I am sure some others may work.
