Monday I took my starter to a shop and had it overhauled and yesterday I picked it up. Today I was installing the starter and when I was attaching the cable to it as soon as the nut made contact the bolt popped off. Is this an easy fix or should I take the starter back. It's a half a day drive to the shop and back but if it involves going inside the starter I'm not doing that. It would void the warranty to go inside anyway.

Call who did the work and even send them the picture. They should make it right ! I used to work at a starter shop and never heard of the repair kits others talk about ? I guess because we fixed them with the correct stud ?

I don't think it took them more than ten minutes to fix the stud. I think they used a different kind of repair stud but I got it back.

Quoting Removed, click Modern View to seeSo the same thing can happen again? This was not a professional repair, it'a a rig that we might use to get the tractor home so we could repair it right. Those studs are available, the real ones I mean, but unless you're proficient with such things, take it to a pro. Preferably not the one who last worked on that starter.

That looks like a repair stud. If it is the nut will unscrew. Then go buy a new repair stud and replace it your self.

Stephen: At this point, I wouldn't waste any money on lottery tickets. They are totally based on luck. That's why I don't buy them. That bolt is not an easy fix.

I would take it back for a proper fix but until then I would use either a repair stud or a coupling nut.

I really don't see any threads inside the nut.

Stephan, You should call the shop you took it to and tell them what happened. They might be able to give you instructions on how to remedy the problem.

Sounds like a good idea. I would whole lot rather repair it myself than have to take it back, especially if they couldn't fix it while I wait.

I'd take it back to them, and let them fix it. I know it's a long trip for you , but that is probably the only way to get it fixed. Unless you want to attempt it your self.

I just don't know how the thing is made. While it looks like something you could just unscrew I can picture stuff on the inside falling if you did that.

That is a repair stud. Can be bought at auto parts store. Cheap quick fix for stripped stud.If it was me I would take it back and make them fix it right.

That stud is soldered to the field coils, one (should use) a very large soldering iron to repair. Using a torch (may) result in burning the insulation on the field coils. and you will also need the proper stud for replacement.
