1150 Squeaking starter motor fix

[Welsh]

So on another forum I found a link to the "ADV Hall of Wisdom" on a squeaky starter fix, so since mine ocasionally does it I thought lets give it a try  :biggrin: :biggrin:

First disconnect the battery, it is hard wired to the starter, take the time to clean the terminals etc...

The Starter stuff all lurks behind here  :biggrin:

So one screw off comes the starter cover

The starter is held on by only two Allen bolts plus the solenoid wire and the power supply

Then 4 quick torxbolts and we have access to the guts of the starter, taking a LITTLE solvent, I used turps, push the gears to the side (careful the pin WILL fall out :biggrin

clean the gears lube with a LITTLE Silicone grease and reasemble, all the squeaks gone, loverly  :biggrin: :biggrin:  

Lots of access to check the gearbox linkages whilst its off as well :biggrin:

Well within everybodies abilities (not you Kilroy) :
