All,

I have just ordered my oilite bushes to replace the warn ones in the starter motor.

I have chosen to go for some which were under size on the bore so that I can machine them out to get a greater amount of fit on the armeture shaft, Just incase its warn.

I will be reasembling this over the newxt few days.

I have looked at a parts diagram for the lucas starter motor and it has not got any thrust shims which confusies me a but from talking to you chaps.

Once I have assembled the unit with its new bushes I will see how much end movment there is. If there is a lot then I will grind up a shim to remove this.

Thanks for all your help

Bryan
