Default Re: New to Model A

Sounds like your starter bendix is jammed into the flywheel. That happened to me on a trip a hundred miles from home. Unbolted the starter, and couldn't budge it by hand. In desperation, I jammed the heel of my shoe on the starter body as hard as I could and it came free. You may need some judicious use of a pry bar to work that starter body loose. Your engine will never turn over until you pull the starter. good luck. mike
