I've had Bugsy's starter crap out / lock up on me twice now. Turn Key, solenoid
makes noise, nothing happens. There is a 1/4 square knob sticking out of the
end of the starter. I now carry a small adjustable wrench in the car so that I
can rotate, I believe clockwise, the 1/4 square knob. Bendix drive can now
engage properly, and Bugsy starts right up. This problem of course seems to
occur without any warning and last time it occurred was almost a year ago. I
got stuck once, know what was wrong immediately the other day. Took 2 minutes
to fix. Just one of the idiosynchracies of driving a LBC.
