Trying to source new starter motor!

[hoisttocrew]

Hi,

Please be gentle - I'm new here! The starter motor has gone (it's not the battery, honest!) but neither my local garage nor Graham Walkers in Chester can source a replacement. I think I've found what I need, but three questions please: could somebody confirm the part number for the starter motor for a ZT260, roughly how much should it cost, and are there any dealers/suppliers out there who I should avoid?

Many thanks in advance for all help received!

Hi Charlie and welcome.

Personally my first port of call would be Scooter (Brian from Dreadnought Garage) on here or AE Wilcox (my local MG Dealer and they know their 260's well)

As a priceguide, there's always the Rimmers site http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GRID004274

Brown & Gammons have some in stock http://www.thepart.com/en/search/det...ml?id=56923945
and I found 46 of them in Holland!

others will no doubt have other suggestions

Good luck

323, assuming I'm reading the right bit off the plate. Had it for 6 years, this is the first time it's let me down (there have been other faults, but none which stopped it going!). There's a pic of it in my album if you're interested (more to follow shortly). Thanks again!

Andy, thanks for the pointer - am away from home this week but will do the form at the weekend.
