John_Mereness 4,483 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I had this company help me last time I needed a Bendix drive issue (they can often provide new and equally can rebuild) on a Franklin, then an Auburn, and .... I found them by a little silver Weldon (their brand name) tag on a reproduction part I bought for another car and thought let's explore. http://www.starterdrives.com/ Link to post Share on other sites
certjeff1 59 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I come up with starter Delco-Remy #726-C and it used 16789 Bendix. I bought over 1000 NOS and NORS Bendix gears last year and that is not one of them. But I would recommend Van Bergen and Greener to rebuild your if it is rebuildable. My family has used them for over 70 years. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites

I cannot identify any part number on the drive, please see broken part picture. Do you have a replacement for it? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
John_Mereness 4,483 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) Send this company your photo - they are pretty sharp at this. http://www.starterdrives.com/ And, then when you find one that works on it order a second at first opportunity. Also, this is usually caused by TOO MUCH IGNITION ADVANCE Edited April 26, 2020 by John_Mereness (see edit history) 2 Link to post Share on other sites
certjeff1 59 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 That is Delco-Remy #16810. I do not have any of that part number. What I do have is a 16798 which is the same design with a different gear. It might be possible to take 2 to make 1 good gear assembly. But I cant guarantee it. Looking at yours I don't think it is rebuildable. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites
