I decided to just replace the whole assembly rather than disassemble the whole starter. I just unscrewed the bolts that hold the starter and removed it. Put new starter on and fastened it down.

RECOIL STARTER ASSY

I was very impressed that the vendor had researched OEM part numbers for my particular application and not only reported numbers that were currently obsolete, but also shared the new numbers and their application. .... AND THEY HAD THE CORRECT PART IN STOCK.. Fast delivery and perfect fit. I now have a new favorite place to go to for hard to find parts. Thanks.
