Starter Motor Heat Shield
Posted: Tue Jun 11, 2019 1:36 pm
Been a while..haven't been able to log onto the site.
I thought I would share this little modification with you to minimise the radiant heat stress on the starter motor from the exhaust manifold. Not only can it lead to wiring getting fried with cracked insulation but the solenoid itself may suffer causing erratic starting. Naturally all the lubricants get unnecessarily challenged as well.
So the fix is self explanatory from the photos.
Cheers.
