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.
