Tim,
What happened to me was as follows:
I had a TR3A with a flywheel complete with a bolt-on ring gear.
Perhaps you have a TR4 with a shrink-on ring gear.
Take off the inspection plate on the flywheel housing, you should see the
bolts holding on the ring gear. If not, perhaps that's the problem.
If that's your problem, I'll swap flywheel with you. :-))

Subject: TR4 Starter Q
My gosh I did not think I would be addressing this problem again with my 64'
TR4. But alas, my brand new starter motor, a hi-torque one that I purchased
from Moss, no longer works. Thankfully, when I have encountered such
problems,
at least my TR conveniently dies once I am back home and it is in the garage
Anyhow, is no bendix, no nothing, and I just had it installed three weeks
ago.
Did I just end up with a so-called "lemon" or is there so other demon at
work
that I need to examine.
