I just bought a 1965 Cherokee 180. It hasnt been flown much in the last 10 years. (10 hours). I have put about 10 hours on it in the last 2 weeks. Starting kind of has seemed a bit hard but once started runs great. Today the starter seized and I noticed teeth broken off of flywheel. Prop wont move now. Obviously I need a new flywheel and starter. Just hoping nothing internal is wrong now. Any thoughts?
