Subject:starter problem

This weekend my starter stayed engaged for a spilt second after the engine started.  This happened a couple times.  Then this morning the starter did not engage the flywheel at all so I turned off the key and tried again and it fired right up.  Is there a way to take apart the solenoid and lube it, or is this the beginning of the end of the starter?  I just had it out when I changed the clutch and as far as I can tell, it may be the one they installed in 1986.

  Please email me directly as I am having some list delivery problems lately.

  Thanks,
Clint
