Frank,
Are you sure your battery has the oomph to make it spin?
If you are sure it is stuck on the FW then by all means remove the one
connection and two bolts to pull the starter and have a look-see.
What you're describing is uncommon.
I would try pulling the battery out of you wife's car and try it in the
Healey. :-)
If it is the battery then your generator may not be charging or the battery
is just old.
If the teeth are stuck then don't do anything to bust the teeth :-)

Hi,
I just went to put my Healey on the road yesterday got the plates. I've
started it up fine three days in a row and all winter long now I put the
plates n and go to start it and turns over a few times then noting but
clicks from the starter I thinks it is stuck in the flywheel does anyone
know how to get this undone without taking out the starter.
Thanks,
Frank 1959 BN4/100/6
