Oh dear, I hope you didn't use oil. You need to use a dry lubricant such as graphite powder, the stuff they use for padlocks or dry moly spray. The oil will just attract the crud and it won't be long before you have to clean it again.

Miniron...... geez lucky i thought about the actual make-up of the starter motor!!!!! I used a graphite spray that is used by a mate who is a locksmith - he said exactly what u said!!!!! Thanks for the feedback.

nah seriously, i have never had a lock smith friend, nor a black smith friend.
it sure would be interesting
whats the diff between a founder and blacksmith, besides the jab of a hot iron poke if you call one the other, or the other, one?

Wasn't a black smith the guy who used to work with steel back in the day like horse shoes and branding tools via the furnace??

Yeah- these days they make ornamental furniture and stuff too.
Basically a blacksmith heats metal in a forge, and then persuades it into shape while it's red hot. Main tool of choice is a VBFH, used to scientifically belt the f*** out of it on an anvil.... :lol:
