I have another question about this motor, it has a small plastic box about 25mmx25mm black box about the size of a relay in the wire coming from the stator, I assume it is a rectifier which is then wired back to the battery, does anybody know if this box needs to be earthed back to the body, I'm guessing not but just want to be sure. I have decided I will run an earth wire from it to the body just to be sure. My next question is do these use a starter solonoid to the starter or do they just run heavy wires through a starter switch.The wires from this switch were missing and I don't believe it was original anyway. I have pulled a numbers of starters and wiring from the Victa electric starts and they don't use a solonoid just heavy wires
