ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is an engine comprising a starter pinion and a flywheel assembly including a generally circular member having a peripheral surface including a radially outwardly extending lip. A ring gear is secured to the peripheral surface and includes teeth adapted for engagement with the starter pinion. The flywheel assembly also includes a flexible annular member secured to the circular member between the lip and the ring gear. The flexible member is located adjacent the ring gear to prevent access to the ring gear teeth by an engine operator, and is displaceable away from the ring gear teeth during engagement of the ring gear teeth with the starter pinion.
