starter motor on way out.

Not sure if its the same but I had just this issue last year. Took the starter motor off and it was pretty well covered with dust and carbon. Cleaned it out and has no problems since (where's that wood to touch!). Its quite a job getting to it though, you need to move a fair amount of gear out of the way.
