Default Fate

I went to start my 784 last night for some yard chores. The engine wouldn't roll over but the starter was engaging. So.....I spent the time to dig into the situation. Ended up pulling the starter out. Seems I have a bad "bendix" on the starter.

Got online and looked up the Part Numbers. So, I go looking for the "starter drive kit". Lo & behold, it is running right around a $100.00 (+/-). So, for curiosity, I priced out the entire starter. Come to find out, can buy the whole starter from $60.00 and/or upwards.

And wouldn't know it, the failure had to happen on a Thursday night. I won't get any parts now until first of the week.
