At times when I depress the starter handle on my '54 Major Diesel, the starter just whines. It might do this several times (usually when the tractor has run for a while)then it will crank the engine.
I have replaced the solenoid what could be causing this to happen?

My FMD 55 does the same thing, I usually put it down to not pressing the starter lever forcefully enough. Though I think its a matter of the gears not engaging fully.

Sounds like its clutch slip in the starter clutch. Could have got oil in from either oil leak from rear main oil seal or gear box. If its really bad, remove starter and dismantle, wash out clutch pack with petrol and reassemble.

If it is a grinding noise it could be starter ring gear needs replacement. This is a spliting job.
