Ahh yes. True to form I dove in because I'm mechanically inclined. Did I damage something?
With the bendix and starter removed, look in the bendix side. You'll see copper wires showing where the insulation used to be. It may not be wrecked, but it may eventually fail.
Wes, is the starter out now? If so, just look at the windings through the hole on the bendix side.
