I replaced the starter on my 86. My starter worked but....After replacement man, varoom instantly. If you got the original starter, you may want to consider this too. Servicing the old one probably would have been enough. But I think I read somewhere that the new starter that Randy carries is four brush unit insted of the two brush, original. I got an old starter if someone wants it.
I found that the screw that secures the choke cable bracket to the carburetor shaft thinga ma jig was missing. replaced with "regular" screw. If someone has that special screw in a coffee can, I sure would like to get it. Trade ya for a used starter.
