hey, so i recently replaced my stator and ever since then i've had an issue with the bendix gears not engaging the flywheel... i take everything apart and it all looks fine, but when i put it together it works about 15-20 times just fine then just stops engaging the flywheel.. everything tests fine with a multimeter electrical wise and i just put a new battery in a week ago before doing the stator...

Would using something like graphite to lube the moving parts do
any good?
I take it the flywheel is ok.

They all do that, sir. Worst starter motor system in the known world.
