may not be an expensive fix fella....have a buchers at a haines manual, they do reconditioned ones, and could be as simple as a couple of bolts and wires

its just like on a bike ...but bigger. confirm thats the problem first though

My car was making some funny noises one dayas our beat bobby was walking past he stopped to see what i was doing. Answer was scratching my head and wondering what the hell i could do to fix the noise.
he got his truncheon out and reched into engine bay and gave somethng a smack. Noise stopped. He explained it was the started motor and if i heard it do it again i must hit it hard just about there and it'll be fine.

Sometimes hitting thins is really the only sensible option

Starter solenoids, starter motors...they all seem to behave like 5 year olds. If they play up, give 'em a wack it would seem

yeh but giving your engine parts a well deserved backhander wont have your neighbours ringing the cops. Give a 5 yr old the same treatment and you'd be suprised at just how many cops show up. I know i was.
