I’ve got quite a few Bosch starters laying about, so I might just have a go at reconditioning some!
Also, I’d like to thank you for putting the 300 Tdi / John Deere idler bearing video up…. Worked a treat thank you.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Great to hear!

[@dieselhatz4247]

Takes me back this video, whispered reduction gear, and low and behold it was. Strange how things come back to you after all this time.

13:27 I used an appropriately sized socket put in between the brushes to hold them out and then installed the brush box over the commutator. The end of the commutator pushes the socket out while allowing the brushes to slide onto the commutator. I sized it just slightly larger diameter than the commutator to help and it worked out pretty good. But the cone tool you mentioned would be much nicer.

[@johnboswell3583]

I do it your way - with a socket. I did one again today.

Another masterclass 😊

Hello Mike, what for kind of greace do you use ? I used a keramik paste. Not very happy with it.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

White lithium grease

[@jameskerr5756]

Jobsagoodun Mike. Wondered how you held back 4 brushes at once. Good to know.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

There is a special cone you fit over the end of the shaft, so you can assemble the brushes without spring tension and then slip onto the commutator - looks like a trip to JP's!

[@jameskerr5756]

@@BritannicaRestorations Everyone needs a JP!

[@webpro607]

What is the size of these brushes? is this starter model Bosch 1986S00870?

[@je6017]

Sir, are there more Sunday sort outs in the future?

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Yes - just real busy here at the moment

[@nickaxe771]

Question will a 300tdi starter fit a 200tdi engine?

[@BritannicaRestorations]

yes

[@MARTINA-gc3tq]

Doesn’t stainless steel react with the copper wire.?

[@dieselhatz4247]

The tang on the end of the wire is plated copper, copper but not naked copper, so it shouldn’t. I grease electrical terminals, like it or lump it, I’ve never had a problem.

Now we are in the auto electrician field , Could a LR alternator double
as a welder?
Over at old school garage , he has a video about converting alternator
into welder but since his chanal are more of the entertaining nature ,
he some like lost details in the translation-
Just a thought-

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Hmm. Not a road I will go down..
