OKAY...Now i am at a complete standstill. I took the mitsuba sm-8 12 starter apart, cleaned it up and came to find that the brush retainer is fused into the plastic retainer that guards it from the whirly gig. I THINK YALL CAN TELL THAT I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT STARTER PARTS. So I need a new plastic retainer. where the hell do i get that? any suggestions. Kyle has pics of the part.
