Here's a good one...
Bought a Super C off ebay, local, smokin' deal, and nobody else bid (sign of the times maybe?). Seller was not happy, he was expecting about $1000 more, but he honored the deal.
He said he was having problems with the starter engaging. We got it home and took the starter apart. The starter drive (Bendix as I call it) is brand new, but it sticks in the "home" or "return" position, and will not spin forward to engage the flywheel about half the time.
There is one tiny nick at the end of one of the threads, which we cleaned up with a file. It still sticks. You can flip the gear back with your finger and it will get stuck so bad that you need to pry it loose with a screwdriver.
Is the only solution to this a new bendix? Not a big deal, only about a 10 minute job really, but not cheap.
