Ok I got regular screws to replace the missing ones and put the starter back together noticing that the gear isn't really retractable, so I suppose it is supposed to turn with the motor gear! However I notice it doesnt turn all to willingly! Maybe there is a problem, at least lubrication! How should I test, and lubricate? Thanks for any help!
