Hi.

This is indeed the engine with the cylinders horizontal.

For those who want to know, this is wat i have done today.

The starterengine and the teeth on the flywheel are not so good anymore, it's going and starting, but i don't like it.

So what have i done.

This is the starter that's normal on the engine.



I have taken a starter from a toyota pickuptruck.



In one of the montingholes i made a sleeve, because the mountingholes where further away then the bracket where it is going on.



Then i made the braket of the starter a 5 mm thinner, so it goes in further of the mountingbraket.



Fits just fine.





When is starts it completly runs on the flywheel.



This starter graps in the flywheel from the other site, so as you can see, i now have better teeths again, it's not perfect, but it's better, look at the site where the otherone grabbed in.



I know, it's not original, but i can use it again for a long long time, and if i whant it, i can put back the old starter.



Greetings.

Ruud
