It sounds to me like your cogs aren't engaging properly. I wouldn't let it go very long. That clutch cover is a breeze to remove. Take it off and look at the movement of the cog and mechanism as you rotate the starter. Look for wear, or shavings in the area. Replacing any of those parts shouldn't be too difficult, or expensive.
