Sorry, the switch I have is the later 30/31 style, and it's not a starter switch.

The video is interesting and does show a lot in the side view, but my switch has the fixed screw connectors and not the post style of the 28/29. Post #@ ; Bill, the spring
can only go in one place, and the small fiber washer can only go on one end of the spring, as the other (wrong) end would be contacting the housing, shaft, and spring and do nothing for the points and connections. Still playing with it .
