It was spinning fine, then it seemed like either the battery or starter was failing. It spinned (spun?) slowly a coupla times then clunk and no spinnies. Charged up the battery but would still just clunk. Changed the starter and still just clunk. Tried to spin by hand forward and nothing though it will go backwards a bit. Should’ve tried that before going to the trouble of changing starter.
This suggests chain is broken or bound up inside but could be something else I suppose. Guides broken? —FT Sent from my iPad > On Jan 9, 2024, at 7:38 PM, mitch--- via Mercedes <[email protected]> > wrote: > > On 2024-01-09 12:22, Randy Bennell via Mercedes wrote: >> Is this an interference engine? > > Fortunately I don't think he ever started it before it stopped spinning > freely. > I don't know how much valve damage, if any, you'd get if the chain failed at > cranking speed. > > _______________________________________ > http://www.okiebenz.com > > To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ > > To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: > http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com > _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
