A starter bolt broke from the starter end cap. Parts Catalog says 5/16 X 1.25 length Special. I didn't measure the thread but it looks like fine. It's a 24 volt electric starter.
Anyone else have this happen? Had to take the starter off the tractor to remove the broken off piece of the bolt as it's too tight a place to get a straight drill into and I wouldn't trust an angle drill for that precision drilling.
I expect there are some pretty high stress forces in those bolts especially when rolling the diesel under compression.
