STARTER MOTOR WITH SELF LUBRICATED BEARING

We have a standard 40/50 sequence starter motor fitted with self lubricated bearing in the driving end, supplied to us by Hardy Spicers.

Will you please arrange for this motor to be fitted to chassis 22-EX for further test. When fitting the motor to the chassis the lubricator for the driving end bearing should be blanked up.
