2)       = Or the fact that it is still moving after being disengaged ? =

Here is a link to a video that Aircraft Specialites = made of a cutaway starter adaptor with a Iskra and a common old-style Presolite = motor.

 

Basically it just shows the sliding worm gear not = retracting all the way and it shows the end of the worm gear shaft no = relaxing.

 

The mechanism needs to be able to unwind a bit so to relax  the clutch spring after = engagement.
