Bob: I might add that this new starter drive that I really only became aware of 5-6 years ago, in many ways resembles the centrifical clutch drives used to drive chain on most chain saws.

Another item, my brother changed his Farmall 230 to 12 volt as per your diagrams. I was there one day and he was concerned how hard the starter was hitting when engaged. We removed his starter and yes it had the old Bendix type starter drive. He has since changed to this new type and tells me it corrected the problem. He was concerned the old starter drive was going to break something.

I have no idea how long these have been around, just the fact the IH parts man I had dealt with for 35 years said we haven't ordered the old type in years. Prior to that I hadn't done any starter work to my Super A or 130 in recent memory. So just maybe we are discussing something everyone has been using for 25 years, and in Truro, Nova Scotia they call it a clutch type, while most of the rest of the world call it a Bendix. We may well be into another one of those terminology items where in some parts it is called one thing while in other areas it is called something else.
