Starter motors and dynamo

Inertia Starter Motors
Inertia type starter motors were fitted to Minis up until 1985. An inertia starter fitted car can be identified by the starter solenoid being elsewhere in the engine bay, connected to the motor by a heavy duty cable.

There are four types of inertia starter motor, all originally manufactured by Lucas. While they appear quite different in construction, they are in fact interchangeable. If you intend to repair your starter motor, take care to correctly identify which of the types it is before ordering parts - it will have 'M35H', 'M35G', 'M35J' or 'M35K' stamped on the casing. There should also be on the casing a 5-digit Lucas part number, which will also assist in ordering some parts.

Reconditioned Starter Motor
Genuine reconditioned starter motors have more recently been manufactured to a specification closely resembling the M35J type, irrespective of the type of old unit used in the reconditioning process. This means that they all now use the later design axial brushes (GSB105) and a 'face-contacting' commutator.
Non-genuine reconditioned units may still be built up as either M35H, M35G, M35J or M35K units, depending on spares availability for the designs.

Original M35J Type (Lucas part number 25147B) and M35K Starter Motors
The M35K type starter was fitted for a very short period in the 1970s and is very poorly documented. If you have an M35K type starter, commonly used service parts such as brushes, the pinion and barrel set, retaining clip and spring are the same as M35J components. We cannot however vouch for the compatibility of other parts.

Pre-Engaged Starter Motors
Pre-engaged starter motors were fitted to Minis from 1985 onwards. A pre-engaged starter motor may be identified by its integral solenoid, a large round cylinder riding piggy-back style on the top of the motor. Pre-engaged starters are also operated by a relay, unlike the earlier inertia starters.
