1) where is the best place to get a new/reman starter selanoid 2) where in the hell is it??? thanx herbd |
RE: 66 912 starter problem
Hello herbd, The starter is located on top of the starter motor. It can be removed,
but first I would check the connecting cable and clean it to the solenoid from the starter motor. You will also want to check and clean the hot wire from the battery. Are you sure your key switch is not worn out and not making contact? When the battery is low you will also get the same symptom you described. The starter motor brushes can also be adjusted, but requires removal of the starter and disassembly of it. There is a place in Hayward Ca. called Parts heaven which specializes exclusively in Porsche and they have everything, including the vintage stuff. Partsheaven.com, they will ship UPS. Hope this helps you out; GOOD LUCK! |
