I recently purchased one of these flywheels only to discover when it arrived it was a inertia start not a pre engaged one, this was my mistake...*frown*

Now from what I read on here the inertia and pre engaged minispares ultra light flywheels are the same except for the ring gear? And all I need to is get the correct inertia starter and do the necessary wiring to make it work?

I'm a little far away from minispares so returning it is not an option.

Advice appreciated, thanks

you can just put on a different starter motor but you need to do some rewiring. ( take an pre engaged and an inerta wire diagram and youll see what needs to be changed. also will need a separate starter relay

you can do anything if you set your mind to it...
i rather blow it up winning than keep it together losing.

finish date set for project 1... march 2018

It's easy enough fitting an inertia starter and solenoid as I did for an engine swap, but as it's a brand new flywheel you're probably better off ordering the preengaged ring gear and getting it fitted.

Or use the one off your standard flywheel

I think I'll just get a new starter, thanks for the replies
