SOME COMPANIES REPAIR OLD STARTER MOTORS AND WHEN YOU BUY FROM THEM THEY'LL TAKE YOUR OLD ONE AS A TRADE IN.IF YOU KNOW WHERE ITS SITUATED THEN TRY GIVING IT A FEW TAPS AS DIRT CAN BUILD UP IN THE ARMATURE AND TAPPING IT MAY UNJAM THE WINDING, RELEASING THE MOTOR SO IT CAN TURN.CHECK OUT YOUR YELLOW PAGES FOR ELECTRICAL MOTOR/ARMATURE WINDERS AND I'M SURE THEY'LL POINT YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.OR GIVE YOUR LOCAL SCRAPYARD A CALL.THEY'RE FAIRLY EASY TO FIT,3 BOLTS AND A FEW WIRES AND AN EARTH PLUG USUALLY.
