1930 Buick Starter Question

Recommended Posts

I just finished going through my starter and managed to get it all back together with one possible exception. The engaging lever bolt arrangement doesn't seem quite right and I can't find details on it anywhere. From the head of the bolt toward the other end, I have assembled as follows: bolt head, metal shroud thing, felt washer, lever, large thin metal flat washer, casing, lock washer, nut. This seems right, but I don't think there are adequate threads exposed at the end. When I tighten the nut enough to have any threads showing the lever is too tight. If it is correct, should I just back it off a bit?

If anyone has photos or illustrations of the proper assembly of that portion of the starter, could you please post them?
