The pinion gear binds on the worm gear when is spins down and engages =
the flywheel starter gear. I can recreate on the bench. When this first =
occurred it was because the armature shaft could move too far forward =
which allowed the pinon gear to move too far down the worm gear. I put a =
thrust washer between the armature and the end plate (inside the motor) =
to limit the movement of the armature shaft. There was already a very =
worn steel thrust washer in that place.

Wierd.  Is it binding on the flywheel ring gear?  Are there any witness =
scratch marks on the other parts of the gear assy?  Did you try a spacer =
or something?
