Starting System: Overhaul: Starter

CAUTION: DO NOT clean starter in degreasing tank or with grease dissolving solvents. This will remove lubricant from clutch mechanism, and damage insulation on armature and field coil.

Starter motors do not require lubrication, except during overhaul. Roll-type overrunning clutch requires no lubrication. Drive assembly, however, should be wiped clean and lubricated with silicon grease on shaft, underneath overrunning clutch assembly. See Fig 1 and Fig 2 .

NOTE: On PG260 starter motor, starter and solenoid are not overhauled and are replaced as a complete assembly.
