34 Starter motor Gear problem

Hi All,

Since getting the 34 Packard back from Wade's workshop it has been like driving a 'new' Packard I LOVE it!

Done over 800 miles since getting the car back. Though twice now I have had an issue with starting the car due to an issue with the starter motor. I've unbolted the starter & rewound the gear and put it back in and she started perfectly.

Unfortunately the problem has occurred again & I need to get something done, has anyone experienced this problem? and what should I do to fix the issue. Is it as simple as oiling it? or does it need to be rebuilt.

Many thanks,
Mathew
