Removed sheet metal, flywheel and cycled starter drive. Gear cycled in and out with out and any hesitation. Had a bad wear pattern on starter gear so I replaced the starter with a spare I had. Primed carb and fired Onan up. Shut Onan off and tried to restart but had a drag on flywheel and starter would only rotate flywheel a halve revolution before stopping. Checked house battery and got 13.7 volts (plugged into house circuit). I will remove starter and check brushes and clean up the guts and lub bendix drive.
