2.20.3. Starting motor
The sliding-gear starter motor is flanged to the rear of the flywheel housing on the left-hand side.
As parts of every engine overhaul, the starter pinion and ring gear should be cleaned with a
brush dipped in fuel and then a coat of grease should be applied again.
Always protect starter motor against moisture.
Warning :
Always disconnect the battery earth cable before starting work on the electrical system.
Connect up the earth cable last, as there is otherwise a risk of short-circuits.
