Dont stand still. I fitted an extra mechanical fan, on top of the electrical. Have to run the heater all the time if trafic is slow. My neighbour who is a mechanical wizard says my original radiator must be partially blocked. Im not sure. At...

Made it with the missus sewingmachine , she was impressed. Lets kids, dogs, sheep and crates live another day. )

Thank u hicap for the tip, lifesaver🌼🌼🌼

Cheap fix then… Glad it’s all sorted

Thank you great info. Ive however solved the matter today, by thanks to previous comments(thankyou) by running an extra earth cable from the pole to the block. It must have had poor connection to the frame. Starts like a scared rabbin. ) Thank...

Dont think I can ask for anything, might have been 23 years he reconded it. 🙂 Not my city, to far anyways.

U are right, the previous owner probably had it done in Maaalmöö. ) It got new copper connectionbolts on it Johan. ;)

Even have the gb still on there.

Its a Uk import (2002), the v8 sticker looks really cruddy, as if its been there a lot of years. Frame is fantastic, fully galvanized, think its been changed.

Ill try running an extra positive cable directly to the starter in the w-e. I had a mouse living in the garage last winter. Didnt know they had copper on the menue. )

Maybe, but have cleaned batterypoles, earth to chassiconnection. Cleaned connection solenoid to starter etc.

To add , strangely nuff, it actually runs, when its pulled out from the motor. But I have no way of putting load on it. Mounted just one click and 1/4 turn..

Belive the previous owner reconded it, since it has new connection bolts . Found a cross conversion chart but its hard to know if they would fit.

Hey Guys, Have a series 3, v8 72. The starter was really tired when the engine got hot. Now it only clicks once and make quarter turn, then nothing. Looking for an alternative to the Lucas 25701A starter motor I have. In my foolishness I...
