I removed the starter motor from my <br>
1975 MGB from below this morning. I am 69 now so it is getting harder <br>
to do these things. Thank goodness I have a four post lift. When I <br>
had both bolts out I was able to force the rubber boot off and then get <br>
the starter motor out.<br>
<br>
I don't want to wrestle with it again and it is very old and greasy so I <br>
am going to replace it with one of the modern hi torque starter motors <br>
which hopfully will be lighter , smaller and easier to replace.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good make? I see several are <br>
available.<br>
<br>
<br>
thanks Mark<br>
