Anyone have a starter in Melbourne that's sitting around spare? The one I have makes lots of interesting noises (mostly bad ones), but doesn't do any actual starting.

Flav would be your man in Melbourne....
Send him a PM or email...
Quickest way and easiest way to get his attention (unless you have boobs)

Flav is normally the man, but he's not answering his phone or signed into msn! Trying to chase something down quickly if possible.

Tomorrow or Wednesday would be great. I'll keep trying Flav, but was just seeing if anyone else in Melbourne had a spare in the meantime.
Ricethief, just as long as it works I'm happy!

Try repco and autobarn and bring in your old starter so they can match it for you if u cant get in contact with flav. Also if u get someone to crank over your car while you lightly tap the starter motor with a spanner it might get it going.

I think anything from a 2.6 sigma/scorpion/triton/pajero will fit, but my memory on subject is fuzzy. It may make it an easy find at a wrecker though (+cheaper). Take your old one down to match it?

Already tried the tapping, but to no avail.
Will try calling some places in the morning, and I'll see if they can match up a part number for me.
DasKar, condition/price on the one you'e got? Mt Macedon isn't close but it'll do as a last resort.
