[SPAM] Re: Kavan starter dissassembly ? [PMX:]

[Paul Horan]

MessageMike,
    The gears and everything else has some dirt on it.  Not filthy but there has been substantial wear due to debris getting into the gears and breaking a wire on one winding.

  If the gears are clean use lithium White grease They sell this at Auto parts store in 4 oz tubes remember a little goes along way.

    Dave,
        I have it re-assembled except for lubing the gears.
        What grease should I use on the planetary gears ?  The main shaft is steel but the planetary gears are nylon, epoxy or plastic.
    Thanks,
    Paul

      You can also make a 'spanner' out of a flat tip screwdriver you don't care much about -- a little dremel work to take out the center of the blade and you're there...

      >I believe what you need is a "spanner" wrench to loosen the nuts at the back end of the starter - they are the bolts that appear at the front of the body.  I made my own wrench from a piece of .125" aluminum.  A skinny set of needle nose pliers might also work.  You will have some fun putting it back together - the brushes are spring loaded against the commutator and need to be "pinned" open via the pinholes in plastic case/housing on the back end of the body.
