[T3] got any tips for rebuilding Bosch starters?

["Jason R. Ford" <veedub@apartment101.com>]

<x-charset iso-8859-1>Can anybody give me tips on rebuilding my Bosch starter and solenoid?  It
was working fine yesterday morning, but when I tried to clean the solenoid
with some WD40, a lot of the "gunk" got into the starter or the solenoid and
now it won't crank.

I removed the starter and solenoid, and took it to my FLAPS and they
confirmed that the starter or solenoid was not functioning (it wouldn't turn
over).  I'm guessing that I can "clean them out" and they should work fine
again.  Any thoughts?
