front leaf springs
Does the started always turn the motor? How does it go from being a starter to a generator? My foot switch went out so i have a hot wire going from the battery to the positive on the silenoid. As long as it is hoocked up the motor will run. WHen i disconnect it, it will die. What do i need to do? I do not want to burn up the starter.

As soon as the engine RPM is faster than the starter RPM the starter turns into a generator. The starter/generator is always turning with the engine. |

Re: dead 89
As soon as the engine RPM overcomes what the starter/generator can produce "as a starter" it starts to produce electricity "as a generator". The switch does not shut off, it stays on as long as you are on the peddle.

Re: dead 89
Ok so if the motor gets above lets say 500 rpms then the motor starts spinning the starter as a generator, but if it drops below the starter just starts pulling the motor?

Re: dead 89
You can weld it but it won't hold very long at all. Replace the leaf.
