I'm a little embarrased because when the gear-reduction starter thread was up
a couple of weeks ago I was sitting back smugly thinking: "shoot, I've had
mine for 3 years and never had a problem with it". I bought it from British
Parts Northwest. Well, times change. The CVAR races are Saturday and last
night I went to back the Turtle out of the shop to put it in the trailer and
guess what? The starter won't turn over! The solenoid is clicking. The
terminal is tight. A new battery was not the answer ( mine was 5 years old,
anyway, so I replaced it). Are these things repairable? What should I look
for? The only good news is that it can be removed without removing the
headers.
