Is the starter 1 with a solenoid attached to it?

On the basis that the conversation with the boss when she gets home outweighs the task. Bathrooms cleaned, gyozas steaming. Also, I’ve emptied the dishwasher so I may have to deny I’ve either broken something or bought an expensive LR part. Maybe this was a step too far.

Indeed, big bugger. Be like wrestling a baby seal out of there as there is so much oil.

Probally a sticky bendix gear not getting thrown forward when cranking.

I reckon I’ll strip it on the bench and find it’s contaminated with oil and dirt. Worst case I’ll order a solenoid or a whole new unit. Be a bit of fun either way.

Got the thing out, both covered in oil. Bloody nut on the earth post snapped off, fortunately there is enough of it left to reattach. Heavy old lump especially when covered in oil. Now the unenviable task of cleaning it up.

Was the dishwasher empty from earlier

I’m tempted by this colour scheme. Wheels are in being resprayed satin black. Roofs going in to be blasted and sprayed alpine white. Something like this or sand might work.

You don’t have enough glass to break the paintwork down… your going to look like a gold bar driving down the road.

Red makes it look faster
