    Stripped starter motor S3 Petrol

    Stripped my starter motor today, it had been turning over a bit on the sluggish side, quite a few hammer marks on the side of it, so I gather it had played up a bit before I got it. The brushes seem ok, free to move on the springs, the wiring for them doesnt seem too great, quite a few stray...

    Fuel pump for SU Carb.

    I am looking at putting an SU 44 carb on my 2.286 3MB 8:1, I been looking but cannot find any info on whether the mechanical fuel pump on my engine will be appropriate for the carb or whether I would have to go electric.

    Lucas dlb101 coil

    Hi all, I have tested my coil and am a bit unsure of the readings I am getting, primary is 3.2 Ohms, Secondary is 10.27 k Ohms both sides, my leads are 0.2 Ohm, subtracted it looks about right, also the oil inside is sloshing about a bit, no leaks that I can see. Is this about right.
