Briggs starter issues grind and locking

The ring gear on this design does not wear the teeth like some designs do.

Basically, you are trying to replace broken parts with worn out parts and it is just not working.

The starter in the picture has everything that moves simply worn out.

Trying to get by using salvage/used parts will send a person in circles like this.

"It can't be the starter.... it was just replaced".

Every time a single cylinder engine stops it will tend to stop in the same spot in relation to the upcoming compression stroke of the cylinder as rotation stops. The more cylinders an engine has, the less likely it is to stop in the same place every time.
