- By following this step-by-step tutorial, you can rebuild your starter with basic hand tools and supplies. Below is a list of all products I mention in the video with links to where you can find them. I'm not a mechanic, just an average guy that figures things out and breaks things down in a way all of us can understand. If I can do it, you can do it.

This looked like an Acura Integra starter. I’m here trying to find out what grease to use and I got that info, thanks for that!
I want to tell you that your video's step by step guide and presentation is the best video I have ever watched in my life. It was an absolutely helpful and informative presentation. I want to thank you for your time and effort. Thanks, sir. I will definitely hit the like button and subscribe to your channel. God bless you.
Thank you for the kind words. I’m glad it was helpful for you.
The grooves in the armature are for balancing has nothing to do with wear
@Matt Robinson...hmm that's good to know. Thank you for sharing.
If you use a piece of thin wall pipe to hold the brushes out whilst you insert the armature, then simply pull the pipe out, allowing tgw brushes to snap back in place. Very easy.
Thank you brother for pointing out in a very correct way with explanation❤
Thanks for taking me to another steps
Great video!
Nice job👍👍👍Thank you for making this video's 🙏🙏🙏
@De Niro, you’re welcome!
You need a JIS bit, not a #2 Phillips
Using Japan Industry Standard “JIS” screwdrivers on such screws will make a world of difference for you!!!
I agree, JIS bits are the way to go Those big screws that hold the gearcase together are #3 JIS but I found it was easier to loosen them with a 9mm socket.@@WiekingderViking
Are there any ways to find the starter rebuild kit for a specific car? For example, I need to one for a 96 Honda Accord
For more torque on the screw just use a screw attachment for a ratchet... This way you can manually apply more torque with the handle without having to use any power tools.
That's true, but if the screw is stubborn and starting to strip, you don't need more torque, and the penetrating oil and impact driver would be the way to go. JIS drivers/bits are also worth a try, as they can handle more torque without camming out.
@@thromboid is the US just adopted the robertson screw design...we wouldn't have camming out to begin with lol.
@@carlnikolov Haha, true, though that would look strange to me - I'd be suspicious that the owner just grabbed a drywall screw for a DIY repair! I guess we do have Torx...and external Torx...and triple-square...
I learned about JIS bits after trying to work on my Honda and realising that what looks like Phillips isn't necessarily Phillips.
@@thromboid more surface area grabbing the bolt. plus a deeper more robust contact point same principle as a 6 point socket being better than a 12.
Another step would be to pull the starter drive and clutch assembly out of the case and grease the front bearing. When everything is complete I like to apply power to the unit on the bench and be sure the starter runs properly.
@ENGINEER125, great tip, thank you.
Can you demonstrate on an AC Delco 16716 solenoid retail inflated costs on one is like 267.00 f%#" 😢 ridiculous. Thanks
Nice work. Difficult on this type. Looks to me.
Can you rebuild a 1985 Yamaha Riva 125 xc125 Riva
Badass
ummm, if your armature has those grooves in it, that's NOT wear... that's factory BALANCING. Your NOT going to find a new one that doesn't have those grooves
Can I send you my starter? It sometimes doesn't work. (2001 chevy express van.) I was told something about "dead" spots in it?
I BOUGHT A 66 CHEVY C 20 AND IT HAD A NEW NEVER STARTED GM 350 CRATE MOTOR ALREADY INSTALLED THE SURPRISE WAS IT HAD ANOTHER SBC V 8 350 IT WAS COMPLETE WITH ALTENATOR, CARB, W/P AND STARTER. TOOK THE OLD MOTOR TO A LOCAL ENGINE BUILDER AND HAD THEM DO THE MAG. FLEX AND IT TURN OUT TO BE A EXCELLENT MOTOR. SO I DECIDED TO HAVE A 383 STROKER BUILDER SAID TO GET A MINI STARTER BUT I WAS THINKING JUST REBUILDING IT SINCE IT CAME OFF OF THIS MOTOR. MY QUESTION IS SHOULD I EVEN TRY TO REBUILD IT OR JUST GET A NEW MINI STARTER SINCE ITS A MORE POWERFUL MOTOR.
Totally a personal preference. Since a starter isn’t too expensive, it’s probably worth just buying a new one, especially for your application.
I'm confused. Are you telling me that I really don't need to buy a new or refurbished starter? That the existing starter just needs to be cleaned and maybe a few contact Point replaced? I'm having problems with my starter. My car won't start. The starter spinning but it's not starting the car.
That’s somewhat true. For the most part yes. But if turn the key and the starter cranks, then it’s not your starter that’s the problem.
@@DIYJeff How do you know that?
There are several things that can be wrong, and very rarely other than the starter.
@@gsp911, if the starter cranks and sounds normal and the car doesn’t turn over, then it’s an air or fuel issue. If the starter doesn’t turn over then it’s likely the contact points inside the starter have worn down. If the starter cranks but is weak then it could be a bad battery or bad alternator not charging the battery.
@@DIYJeff No, if the engine does not turn over but the starter cranks, then it is because the starter does not engage the flywheel.
If the engine turns over but doesn't start, THEN it's the ignition, air/fuel, compression or a million other things.
@@gsp911, yes, you are correct. I went back and looked at the way I worded my response and it was wrong. I agree with everything you stated.
So say rebuild the brushes you didn't replace just copper coated parts y not
Can't you just use a socket on the brushes...this way they are all pushed out of the way and when you seat it back together simply remove the socket out of the way.
@carlnikolov, great tip. I will try that next time.
@@DIYJeff happy to help.
Those are four BRUSHES, not BUSHINGS….
@WiekingderViking, you are correct, thank you for pointing that out.
7:35 It's for balancing, wtf... 😂
My name Jeff...(sorry I had to)
THE GROOVES ARE FOR BALANCING,🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
what i learned from this video is to just buy a new starter
