A friend got stalled on his restoration for 5 years, because of a HORRIBLY locked up starter.
I went over with my long 1" cement breaking bar, aimed, hit the starter case @ about 2 o'clock position & it fell out on the second hit. Sometimes, BRUTE force is necessary!!! I tole you I wuz GOOD!!--LOL---Brush the flywheel teeth with HEAVY wheel bearing grease & rarely will lock up happen again!!!
