The Stig Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 The end fell off! The cover/bush on the end of the starter motor popped out and now stuck on with Duct tape so need to get a new one. Any suppliers recommended? Was thinking about a high gear motor if I got new unless anyone has a standard one going spare. It is for Ford Crossflow.
Kitcat Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Best to rebuild. I was never able to find a replacement, Dave Bean, etc., all struck out. Takes a weird size, nothing fits.I tried MANY units. Or, call Caterham/Sevens and Elans/etc.
The Stig Posted October 4, 2011 Author Posted October 4, 2011 Thanks. I will look for a rebuilder and parts. I know where to go in the UK for these so could wait until my next trip but still want to get out in the car before the winter!
MoBoost Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Not sure what engine you need the starter for, but did you look into a Tilton starter? Pegasus Racing carries them. Not cheap, but an excellent product.
breezy7 Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 You might try talking to these folks: http://www.gustafsonmachine.com/ No first hand experience with them but the forum search feature shows a couple of threads. Mike
