I have a MF 65 with an indirect injection 4 cylinder perkins. The back plate on the starter was broken when I got it. Replaced it and it broke again. Pulled the starter all apart and everything looks good.
Could it be caused by the fuel injection pump timing being too far advanced. The tractor starts and runs well, it starts quickly with no effort. It does smoke quite a bit when it's cold, but I think that's normal.
The timing marks all line up. I pulled the front cover and checked. I have never seen an engine push the end plate out of the back of the starter before.
Any suggestions?
