HI Guys, just wondering if this is the right Gemini Starter Motor I should be getting for my Clubby??? It doesent seem to look as if It will fit in the Holes? But I am told you can use a Gemini Starter Motor in a Mini. Is this one pictures below the wrong model? If so can someone, show me what I should be looking for?

Thanks Guys

That looks different to my one, what model did it come from?

They fit perfectly in the housing but you have to file out the bolt holes.

This is my one...

needs to be out of rear wheel drive car
need to elongate holes to match mounting on housing
just needs to be filed carefully

As above, sounds like it might be from the RB FWD later model.

You can buy new ones from Heritage MG, the holes are already slotted so they bolt straight in.
Around $165, they have 2 year warranty.
Their p/no is HMG815. :wink:

I've got one that i dont want...
was fitted to my van but 'free spun' to much for my liking so re-fitted the original. most of the time turned over straight away but sometimes needed 1 or 2 kicks.
if you cant find one its yours if you want it - but postage mite be a bit

That might be out of a Gemini Diesel or the FWD Gemini but not the one you need to fit a Mini
