Finally I thought that I would have to get a new starter, so I said what's the worst that can happen if I take it apart. When apart I found what I want to say was a "carbon" like dust on the bottom part of the starter, cleaned it all out put starter back together and its been fine so far

Hope it helps

Jorge, thanks for reply sounds good I guess it won't hurt to take it apart and clean it up probably has never been done.
