I think my starter clutch is faulty. The battery is good and I had new brushes fitted last summer so I know the starter is clean inside. It sounds like the starter clutch is just slipping. I did the engine flush and changed to thin oil last week and it worked a bit in that the clutch slips less often than before. It mainly does it when the engine is cold as well. Any suggestions or am I really looking at an engine out? Thanks.
