trying to find a reason that would make my starter turn backwards ?
replaced reduction gear and the one way starter clutch .
i did pull starter apart before replacing all the bottom end parts and the starter is turning backwards ?
any help ?

Welcome to the site !!

I have not heard of that happening before ... it should only turn one direction , then the gears make it turn the engine the correct direction due the placement of the gears which indicates what direction each goes to turn the engine the right way ... , I don't know how that could change .....

Why are you thinking the engine is turning backwards ??

Or are you thinking the starter itself is turning backwards ??? , as like I mentioned , each gear should only allow it to turn in a specific direction ... is the timing chain going backwards when you crank the engine over ???

Confused ....
