Greg,
Yup Marelli on mine. I had it rebuilt not too long ago. The problem was that
the starter would start but not stop...even when I disconnect the starter
solenoid! Had to be shut off by pulling the main battery wire to the starter
itself. I didn't like that.
I took it to a local guy and made sure I told him first that the starter was
for a Fiat. Then when I brought it to him I told him it was for a Loopframe.
He said that it was very similar and fixed it right up. No problems since
other than the hanging up issue.
Good luck and let us know what you learn.....Ian

| Ok I just pulled the starter and did a loadtest and with no load the starter is pulling 52 Amps!!! which is well above the 25 it is spec'ed to pull. We all are talking about the Marelli starter? If I can find some one around here who rebuilds them I'll take it in and report back if they found the problem. -Greg Dahlman gr-@rm-rf.com -69 ambo |
