The functionality of the freewheel gear

After starting the engine, along the guide shaft with a tape thread, it "goes" into the inside of the starter. Engine start depends on the serviceability of the bendix. As you know, spare parts tend to break and wear out. Therefore, if the grooves of the rollers, cylindrical rollers or mechanical damage are worn out, this spare part will have to be replaced immediately. It is impossible to neglect and not pay attention to the wonderful sounds, the smell of fuel and gas, loud noises of vibration, as this should alert the driver to immediately take measures to eliminate the malfunction.
