Hi Guys, in the picture below, it shows the Starter motor with the hole's misaligned due to the fixing coming loose. The epc shows a bolt, M10x30, What i need to know is, 1,.does a bolt go there or have i lost a stud and nut, and 2 is the other fixing (not shown ) which is above a stud + nut or bolt.

 

It might mean getting down and dirty, but i'd appreciate it.

 

Thanks

Mine were both studs IIRC and nuts. I think you may have had the same problem i had where the threads have stripped out the gearbox. I can come and have a look if you need a hand.

One was a stud and the other a bolt when mine fell off.

bolt and stud on mine too....

(one of each)

Thanks guys, Martin (Gonzo12c) came around and between us think we sussed it. The top one is a stud and the bottom one uses a bolt because the ally flange is not like a lug with a hole but is open-ended, this allows the motor to be bolted on the stud then the over fixing is twisted to mesh then righted, Looking at it it looks like it IS a rounded lug thats broken

 

As it was, the AA man who came out on Wed did a great job and its as solid as a rock.

 

Thanks to all, Ah matt, i did find that online cat, very useful, only trouble was is shown the bolt but not the open-ended fixing,

 

Big thanks to Gonzo for coming over if only for a chat, nice to meet members,
