Has anyone ever replaced a starter adapter drive on
a TSIO550? (this has the turbo scavenger pump on the back of it)
I currently have the problem of the starter motor
running but the prop not turning past a compression stroke. I am told that
the whole assembly has to come off the back of the engine and the shaft and
spring replaced or rebuilt. The problem I have on the IV is the distance
from the back of the shaft to the firewall is only 2 or 3 inches. I don't
think this is enough room to slide the assembly out. Will the engine have
to be moved forward to remove this assembly?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
