Does anyone have any recommendations for a starter motor on a S2 2.9 1990?

Get a click with key turn, sometimes a start, rocking the car in gear normally makes it work, but not reliably enough.

Connector under dash is bypassed, good connection to solenoid, good earth. So suspect the solenoid is iffy, or the motor is sticking part engaged.

Cheers
Dave

We are going to leave it a while, and see if it gets better, its been essentially laid up for a few months.
