I don't know what that means. Apparently a starter gear fell off and rattled around, damaging other stuff. They're replacing it all, including the case.



That is what can possibly happen if you don't put the little springy washer back in right. or if they did the clutch springs and "forgot" to put the little starter gear shaft back in too. They busticated it originally I would bet. There is no possible way that gear can fall off without help.

A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice. Pat
