Actually I was waiting this problem since a few months ago since I started to test my ECU and cranked the car too many times a day.

Finally the Starter gave up today. The overrunning clutch is not longer working as intended.

Is the overrunning clutch sold separately? Is there a yunkyard fix or something?

I spent more time writing this question in the forum than fixing the problem with the starter.
I opened the clutch and found that the springs that hold the barrels inside the clutch were too much compressed. Just pulled every spring so they are back to the original extended length. Reassembled everything and I am back to my task of starting the car over and over again... Hope to resolve my timing issue and then crank only like any other normal car...
