Previous owner was heavy on the starter button, burned out the armature and melted the carbon brushes into the plastic holders.
Got a deal on this snowblower otherwise it wouldn't have come home with me, found another 110 volt starter at the landfill with broken mounting tabs that otherwise worked.
Drilled out the spot welds from both starter mounting brackets then using the Mig spot welded the good bracket onto the landfill starter. The copper fields inside the starter are a fair distance from the shell case, thought I may have to quickly toss a wet rag onto my welds to cool them off.
Everything worked out fine, I now have a snow blower to sell.
