54 Commander Starter Problem

-
You might try dissembling the starter, cleaning the bushings and shafts with carb cleaner and lubing them with white (lithium) grease, and reassembling. While its apart, verify that the bushings are not worn, if so replace, or have an automotive electric shop replace them. Mine (53) were so worn the armature was dragging on the coils. Friction slowed it way down.
