Starter Motor

Dunno if i mentioned it - I got my high torque starter for £10, two and half years ago....its been used loads and loads ramping up oil pressure before starting.

Its from an Isuzu Trooper 2.6 injection....you just need to skim 3-4mm from the starter motors alloy moutning ring.

Its the same item sold for about £170! I was scoffed at by some bloke selling them at a show when I told a bunch of people near by to just buy them from a scrapyard for £10...The bloke mumbled something about worth buying new cause they last at this rate I can buy 17 2nd hand units to one new one...thats already 34years and counting...Must be used to Lucas cause Nippon - Denso stuff is just run in after 200,000 miles on a Trooper 8-)
