Starter motor

The starter motor gets my attention next, on taking it apart some bits fell out.
Further inspection showed them to be the insulation on the square bolt head for the main terminal post.

The steel body gets an undercoat of zinc primer.

After removing the starter from the engine, there was a screw in a srange place.
The screw was removed and the correct one keeping part of the crankcase together was put back in place.

With seals replaced, brushed measured and within limit and a new high temperature plastic insulator in place the starter was put back together.

The starter has been sprayed all over with a high temp silver paint and screws replaced with stainless ones from ebay.
