The Starter Motor itself is OK.

If you have no luck let me know and I will check when I get home Regards Mark   David Bailie New User Username: davidb Post Number: 5 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Tuesday, 30 September, 2008 - 20:00:    Thanks for the reply Mark, if I can't get going before then I will contact you.

I have not seen one and no doubt they do not look like the original. But if the alternative is no starter ..... they are bloody heavy to crank and neither of us is getting any younger. I presume you are aware that RR changed to Nippondenso in 1987. The new ones are streets ahead of the old Lucas are much smaller more powerful and far more reliable.
