How do i Replace ring gear on john deere 318?

Take the motor out of the machine, remove the shroud over the flywheel, remove the bolt holding the flywheel on, I pounded on my ring gear to remove the flywheel. spin it as you pound, after you get the flywheel off put it on a little piece of 2x4 in the center and you can knock the ring gear off the flywheel with a hammer and a drift. When you get the new ring gear put it in the oven at 350 degrees for 20 minutes and it should fall on the flywheel. I have had to lightly tap them on after warming them.


How an electromagnet is used in a starter motor?

In a starter motor, an electromagnet is used to engage the motor's pinion gear with the engine's flywheel. When the ignition key is turned, electrical current flows through the coil of the electromagnet, generating a magnetic field that attracts a movable armature. This movement pushes the pinion gear into contact with the flywheel, allowing the starter motor to crank the engine. Once the engine starts, the current is cut off, and the electromagnet releases the pinion gear, disengaging it from the flywheel.


If a car starter is making a grinding noise before or sometimes only after starting can it be caused by a computer problem?

no this is not a computer problem.it is either a starter motor problem or the ring gear on flywheel is worn

How does a car starter works?

A car starter is an electric motor that is used to turn the engine over in order to get it started. The motor is powered by the car battery (Typically 12 Volts) The motor turns the engine by engaging the flywheel (cog) by one or other of two means. 1/ The turning action of the motor pushes a gear into the flywheel. 2/ A solenoid attached to the motor pushes in the connecting gear. After the engine starts the gear disengages.


Suzuki lt160 1990 the starter is just free spinning it is not turning the motor over what do you do?

sounds like the ring gear or flywheel is worn if you have a manual or stick shift put it in 2nd gear depress clutch let car roll a little release clutch (the engine will turn slightly) then try starting engine. with auto transmission you will have to turn engine over with socket and ratchet bar (if you cant turn over at the drive belt by hand) if this starts your car the flywheel will need replacing... Could also be the bendix ... the solenoid that engages the starter motor to the flywheel.


How does a stater work on a engine?

The starter, upon activation, has a gear that is forced onto the engine's flywheel's gear to turn the motor over. Upon engine start or release of the start voltage the starter gear disengages.

What is startermoter?

A starter moter is a high-torque electric motor for turning the gear on the engine flywheel. The modern starter motor is either a permanent-magnet or a Series-parallel wound Direct current electric moter with a solenoid switch (similar to a relay) mounted on it.
