Starter motor

Post by PAULJ »

Hi all, after finding I need a replacement starter motor ive been looking on ebay. There seems to be a lot that look the same but all have different numbers. Can anyone tell me what one I need please. I have my eye on a M35C number 250796. Will it fit ?
Thanks

Link to the ebay listing would help! I avoid the later starters with the 'end on' brushes....the earlier type with radial brushes are easily repaired - not so the later models...... This one looks fine (obviously needs cleaning...) and there are plenty others at a similar price. Look for the 'band' round the starter - the brushes are under the band. Try to find one near you to avoid carriage! Or indeed - ask on here - in the Wanted section! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MORRIS-MINOR- ... 540754f1b9

It was more a general question as they all look similar. I avoided the link just encase someone else bought it :D :D
Anyway Ill take a chance. I was hoping that the MGA starter would fit as its for my MGB swap van and thought it might have a bit more torque. Already have a post in the wanted section.

It's the same starter - and that's the good one with the radial brushes......
