Hi Kamel, I would check that there isn't a high resistance in the rest of the starter circuit. The 200amp relay I fitted was this one; https://www.vehiclewiringproducts.co.uk/c-219-relays-flasher-units/p-648-high-current-relays I have read of 100 amp relays being fitted. Personally I wouldn't as you...

After having the starter solenoid welding its contacts on my 350K2, I thought I would investigate the current draw. The starter solenoid fitted was a Lucas item with no part number on it. I fitted a 200A rated item, took out the sparkplugs, and using a DC clamp ammeter got the following results. Pea...

Count me in as well.

A 6mm grommet seems a good enough fit.

Thanks for the replies. There was some evidence of the casting being nibbled. I'll just adjust it up a bit to reduce the slack, but not enough to prematurely wear out the bearings.

When checking out the starter setup, found that the chain had quite a bit of slack. The adjustment will take up all of the slack, but I can't find a figure for what's recommended. I'm referring to the 'bottom' of the chain run. Also the 'filler plug' was missing. A 6mm grommet looks like it might do...

The pics are from my 1983 K2. The two hex bolts are M6. The M6 pillar standoffs are 20mm deep.

I would be interested in four of these, if they become available.

I'll go for one as well (350K2).
