Sorry for this OT post but the DML always has ALL answers...
I have an Exmark Laser with a 18 HP Kohler. Today the starter would spin
but nothing would engage. Just a fast spinning starter motor sound. I
removed what I think is a solenoid bolted near the starter. Inside is a
large spring and some sort of plunger (but the plunger stayed connected to
the starter). Looked at it, scratched my head, and put it back together. I
turned the top of the motor thinking it would turn the flywheel incase it
needed to be moved past a broken tooth but it didn't work. Tried persuading
it a few times with a hammer but it just sun and whined at me.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
James
