550 F2 started!
Laverdaroo:
Reet, I’m bits, liking at the starter motor first…..
Had it apart again and notice there’s a good 2.5mm of end float laterally on the brass bearing so think that’s shot but I’ll bob
it back together and see if it replicates after another ‘nanny’ and a re oil.
Now, never noticed this before (probably due to the years of cack which is cosmically attached via nuclear fusion through no cleaning over 40 years) but behind the bushing in the starter cap there’s a felt washer……….who knew?
Re-doused with oil and I’ve put the old brushes and original springs, I’d taken the stings off a knackered unit as they were in better nick and bought new brushes, so just in case the profile is causing the vibration I e put the original ones back in to test. They’ve loads of meat on them but are worn in so maybe make it spin with a bit less friction???
Interested to see anyhow

This is the order it came out when originally split as I have photos, but just thought, is this the right order of shims?
Potential issue?
