What does the correct starter look like? All I can find have a plastic cover over the shaft, and the terminal comes out the side. Mine has a metal sleeve with a lock ring and terminal is on the end. Trying to fix one somebody really fixed good

Still haven't found out if it takes a side or bottom post starter
