Tilton Starter Motor Repairs

[warpspeed]

Do any of you gent's know of anyone acting as agents for Tilton Engineering ? I have one deteriorating starter motor that is iminently going to be changed for one from Bell Hill and I want to re-build the old one and keep it as a spare. Consequently I need to locate service parts for the old one.

On the subject of Tilton starters, there was a company asking for old ones for refurb a while ago.

Are they still wanting them?

I checked out the Eurolec site and they are re-engineering old units. Also got an e-mail from a chap named Larry at Tilton Engineering saying that the model used on the Cerb' went out of production years ago and that there were no spares left. He did however state that it was based on an Hitachi unit, part number S114-439R, this info' may be of use to someone. Thanks again all.
