DISASTER

Got up this morning to get Sully in shape for TIXOVER, was going to head out and get some new tyres, lo and behold - no power.

Looks like the starter motor is [!Expletive Deleted!].

Don't know if I can get it all sorted before Sunday - so unless somebody has some good tips or a spare starter motor lying about and picks up this post before it gets dark today - I won't be able to make it.

 :cry:

take the starter off and give it a good clean up. have a look at all the wires to make sure none are broken and make sure your battery is good.

Just about to start - the thing has to come off anyway. Is there an easy way of getting it off - Haynes seem to suggest removing the exhaust manifold???

Thrasher:
Undo the bolts, then roll the starter down the chassis rail. It can be done. DO NOT REMOVE EXHAUST!!!!

OK - unit is now off.

I have opened it looked, been horified at the shattered interior :shock:  and closed it. IMHO it is not likely to be repaired (certainly by me).

Anyone know if I can get one locally (Northampton) as time is kinda crucial now. :roll:
