Is there any way of reconditioning starter
teeth on a flywheel without splitting the tractor and replacing it.

I noticed the bendix gear grind a bit before engagement and removed the starter. I've got about 1/8in wear on the flywheel and the teeth side surfaces are flat. I'd rather replace the flywheel when the clutch assembly needs work.

The first thing that came to mind was using a dremel thru the access hole and "V" grinding the teeth edge. That will take some time for 200 or so teeth. I don't expect noticable out of balance for such small metal removal being careful to remove the exact same amount from each tooth.

The tapered engagement part of the bendix teeth appear to be in good condition and I'm getting free movement on the shaft. I oiled the shaft a little.

Is there a tool for this work?

Thanks.

No, you can't do that. the teeth are worn off like Rany said. grinding more off them won't make them better. the gear is a ring seperate from the flywheel. you may be able to turn it 180� or reverse it. But yes, you are going to have to split the tractor.

I couple of weeks ago somebody else was asking the same question. It was discussed about filing the teeth square. The problem I see with this is that you are shaving more material off the teeth. Yes, you are making them look pretty but in the end the teeth are still worn down. I can see where this may cause more wear on both the ring gear and the starter drive gear. Just my opinion.
