After having my 85 westy parked for nearly a year, I
have finally decided to address it's bad starter.
After purchasing a generic rebuild at my FLAPS (first
mistake?), I removed the old one and managed to get
the old bushing out with some difficulty using a tap.
I drove the new bushing in using a short piece of
dowel but now the new starter shaft will in no way fit
into the bushing.  I've managed to get it started but
it is so tight that I think if I were able to drive it
in it wouldn't be so keen on turning.  The bushing and
starter shaft are both well lubricated.  Is there a
trick to this or is it just a case of cheap parts not
fitting correctly?
thanks in advance...
