Re: Starter motor solenoid

Hi, thanks, but I ended up buying a whole new starter motor...and then taking the engine out, transferring the ring gear from the Estelle flywheel to the Favorit flywheel and putting it all back together (2 hours total....not bad eh!)

Re: Starter motor solenoid

its probably a bit bonkers but using a later felicia motor (with a bit of filing here and there) seems to spin up the engine really quick and quietly but then thinking about it my origional starter was like a damp piece of bread engaging the ring gear

i guess this was part of changing the engine from 5 port to 8 port specs

2 hrs really is swift spannering ,well done
