Hi the starter is ok it's the solenoid thats packed up the wire that goes to one of the terminals has broken off in side i did try to fix it.

I have had a look around but you can't get just the solenoid on it's own.

You have to buy the starter motor the ones i found seem to be different to the one on the engine.

Am not sure of anywere in my area that fixes starters?

As Tractor says, have a look in your area for a repairer, I had my starter reconditioned at a local place at a good price

 

Must read your last post more carefully! If you search for dc motor repairers you may find one.g

The starter solenoid will quite happily do without a turn or 2 on the windings. Take one or 2 of the coil to give enough slack to re-solder & also clean all the contacts/remove gunge while in there.

 

Re- wired/cleaned Florin's starter solenoid 5 years ago after it failed & still all good. ( crossed fingers/ money spider around head/4 leaf clover picked)
