Recently started having this happen,usually first thing in morning.Turn key to start, doesn't engage ring gear, just makes whirring sound, next try starts normal. Restarts normal rest of day. Today no engagement after several attempts, get out give starter a good knock with tire iron and she cranks. Was told that its the bendix going. Will this knock routine work until I can replace it? Does starter need replacing or just bendix, or part of? Friend has spare starter, but I wont get out to his place till the weekend.So I need to keep my beast going till then. Does it matter what part of starter to knock?
