My 2200 engine, #988, has a black starter case with  black end plate and silver cap for end bearing.  I think it is a Bosch  starter.

  

 I was doing some ground tests and the engine  started fine as usual. There was no sluggishness or hesitation to start.   Then without any warning, the starter motor just spun without turning the  engine. When I try it now, there is a “clink” noise for a split second and then  the starter just spins. I suspect the starter bendix/gear is not engaging the  flywheel gear.

  

 Can the starter be removed without taking any other  components off (for example the alternator or flywheel)?

  

 If it is just the bendix/gear, can it be  replaced?

  

 Are there any special alignment adjustments when  reinstalling the starter?

  

 Thanks,

Chuck  D.

I can't talk for the black starter, but the later silver one can be  

removed without disturbing any other component. As I recall, three  

socket-head cap screws hold it on. There is an adapter nose that will  

come off the starter when the starter is removed, and it can only be  

reinstalled one way, I have found.
