Starter 200 1985

The starter on my B230F doesn't seem to be disengaging instantly on every start. It seems to stick engaged for about 5 seconds after the car starts, usually on cold starts. I can hear the starter spinning and then it kicks out. Anyways, I'd like to pull the starter off and lube up the bendix. My question is how hard is this to do on this motor? I looked through the archives and it sounds like there are two 18mm bolts (one that is hard to get to) and then the starter comes off. Are there any shims or anything else I need to watch? Thanks.
