Ive had my gt stored away in my garage for about 2 years with no use.
I now actually have the time, a bit of cash, but more importantly the inclination to start driving and racing it again.
Couple of small issues tho. I've gotten rid of the old fuel and give it a couple of gallons of fresh stuff, changed the sparks and now the battery... But it'd having a bit of trouble turning over. Ie, it turns over slowly and noisy.
Starter motor is the first thing on the list to do, I've changed 2 on previous 5's and have forgotten most of the detail but I recall it being a bitch (cramped). Before I change the motor I want to replace the wiring as I feel it could do with a renew. I'll clean the grounding points and put a couple of new cables in but I'm not familiar with the wiring that the starter motor takes.
Anyone got links for new cables for the starter motor and the ground leads? Halfords can't be e cheapest. Failing links, advice on cable spec would be appreciated.
Also, what was the old "uprated starter motor" I'll price that up as a possible replacement.
Any other advice welcome... Also, if your in the area and want to help.....
