Hello people of the pistonaphere.

I have the starter motor of Wendy at the moment. 3.5 Rover V8. It'll be off for at least three weeks while the new manifolds are coated.

Anything I can readily do 'on the bench' in the way of [worthwhile] maintenance?

Not had any issues with sticking or non-firing. Will be renewing the wiring to it as they are pretty cooked (manifolds go down and back on a 350i) and stiff. Plus it gives me a chance to route it better and shorten it.

But the motor itself?
