Begining to have problems with the starting motor chutch grabbing ( holding) the crankshaft. Sometime engauges for a second before spinning loose. Parts diagram (Starting Motor Unit) shows 3 dowel pins, 3 caps for compression springs and 3 compression springs. Any suggestions on which causes this type of problem?
