My starter will spin fast, but will not engage the flywheel. This only happens when it is cold. I hit the button a few times, then it will engage and start. Notjustair responded to an earlier post about this problem saying that it is gummed up and to pull the starter and spray the gear with brake cleaner and clean it good.
I have never pulled a starter before. Question is: can i just remove battery, remove the 2 bolts holding the starter and clean this gear without removing all wires and outside cover?
My battery is good and I have a maintainer on it when not in use. I do have some corrosion on the posts. I was planning on cleaning them, but, thought I may clean the starter gear at the same time.
