I've heard elsewhere that the part numbers for the bendix cover are identical, bearing or no bearing. Hope you get a new bearing type one.
I have just gone through the machine shop exercise (best mate runs an engimineering workshop) and we have fitted a BK1210 closed cup needle roller into a spare bendix cover I bought ages ago.
As they say, a coat of paint hides a multitude of sins and only a purist would pick that it's been modified.
Fitted it and only marginally better. Turns further but not over.
Today I was in the shed and had an idea. I thought 'Clearance Clarence' and just for schitzengiggles backed off the bendix cover screws. Cover didnt look like it moved, but more movement in the starter. It turned over.
I made a new gasket from .75mm paper and fitted it and first punch to warm the battery, second punch, it spins like a top.
And seems repeatable from cold. Last attempt I forgot I still had the plug in the pipe but it still wound over.
Based on previous exuberance, YMMV.
