Ignition turned freely prior to rebuilding the powerhead. This is what is stumping me. The retaining ring goes on bevel down and then the support ring with 4 screws. Line up support ring, install armature, and then the 2 coil screws and the 2 plate screws get tightened. I evenly tighten the 4 screws until snug. I am not torqing down on the screws. As soon as short screws are snug it binds. I guess it is possible the support ring is warped and causing the binding but again in a box the entire time motor was apart. Has anyone else come across this?
