Valeo starter motor siezed, stuck and cracked :(
Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 4:01 pm
So the engine is in, everything done.... went to turn the key, nothing :( Got the starter motor inside and stripped it down. Rusty, muddy water pored out
I think this may have had something to do with it
I tried to tap the casing with my spanner, but then i ended up breaking these little things...
So im guessing that the starter is now scrap? Or can i fix it, or can it be fixed? Someone said to me that these "skinny" starters can be hard to come by....
So what can i do? Has anyone got one i could buy off them. I did have another starter motor that fitted, but i lost the piston thing out of the solenoid and plus it isnt a Valeo.
Any help much appreciated... Henry
