Greenmech starter

[jmac]

The starter motor fried on my safetrak 19 28 today, and I need one asap. Am I best getting one straight from greenmech? Or is there anywhere north of the border that I could get one from ? The chipper has the izusu engine if that makes any difference. Thanks.

In March 16 I replaced one on our Mk1 1928 for £130 it took 5 days mail order from alternatorman in portsmouth

Thanks . I just seen an old thread from johny Burch saying greenmech wanted over £450 for a starter, think I will give that a miss!

Unfortunately that's Isuzus price, very similar to Kubotas prices I believe..?

Get two cheapies (non genuine Isuzu) or get yours repaired and keep one as a spare - they are prone to failing every so often (normally when someone turns the key with a bit of timber jamming the flywheel after running down with the feed rollers engaged). You should pick them up from any decent auto electrician off the shelf, or next day if not. You are potentially in the mire when they fail as you effectively have 2 tonnes of immobile deadweight parked wherever you last turned it off. The starter is quite awkward to remove/refit on that model too, but can be done without removing any of the exhaust. Refitting the winch loom (where fitted) is the most awkward bit...
