smudger 2 Posted September 4, 2017 I thought that they were pre engaged starters on the mk5? If it is a inertia they are easy to Recondition with new brushes - available on eBay for less than a tenner Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mk2sav 42 Posted September 4, 2017 As far as I can make out , this should have the same 3 bolt fixing , 10 tooth starter as lots of earlier Fords , Lucas no 25148 or LRS100 , and if it is , I had a service exchange one listed on e-bay but got no bids at £20 - post would be about £8 on top if any good to you .
