    and a bucket load easier to install cause its lighter and better shaped...

    the series starter I could just manage as a 2 hand job.

    the tdi is a single hander, much easier.

    draws about 2/3 the current for the same effect.

    has it got 2 6v batteries ? I never seen a 6v diesel. Any S3 alternator will do..
    Yeah, cheers Groucho, I got confused with the two 6v batteries in series. Thanks to all for your inputs too. So the switch gear from a S3 should be OK then too? I'm trying to get a new ignition key/switch from an S3 but I was told it wouldn't be any good. Sounds like bollocks to me now. I have many more questions but this will tie me over for a while.

    The diesel ignition switch has a position for glow plugs, so a petrol s3 ignition switch won't work the same. Also depends if yours is key start (later 2a/3) or button start, but I don't know specific differences there.

    Would you be able to suggest where I could buy a replacement sprag clutch for less than the cost of a whole starter motor?

    On this occasion the above information is incorrect. Some Series Land Rovers and 101" Land Rover forward control are 24V, but mostly those started life as a military radio vehicle.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    True. How about all original factory specified, original engineering manufactured, civillian specification Land Rovers?

    The FFR's came out of the Land Rover factories 24V, that would make them OEM.
