Ford 550 Starter Assembly

[mike48130]

I have a 550 that I needed to replace the solenoid on it. I couldn't get the solenoid off, so I pulled it apart and had to remove the solenoid lever pin. I didn't know it was eccentric, but now I do. The service manual has the dis-assembly, but I can't find the assembly section or how to adjust this arm.

Anyone do one of these before? It's a Lucas starter, and probably the same as many 3 cylinder Ford's. Maybe a later version of the service manual for a newer tractor or 555 has it if someone had one to look at?

Thanks,

Well, after typing this, I just remembered I have the IT manual from when I had a 3550. That manual describes how to adjust.

Thanks for the help everyone....
