All of this talk about starter solenoids has gotten me thinking about a problem I've been having with my 1974 TR6. Here's the description: For some months now when I first start my car I sometimes he

<< Just what does the solenoid do anyway? >> The solenoid is a relay switch. The smaller wires from your ignition switch, operate an electromagnet, which connects the heavy lead from the battery with

It's your flywheel. The ring gear and the flywheel are two separate pieces on a TR6. Each time your starter engages it hits the ring gear and pushes it a tiny amount away from the starter. Eventually

Joe : It's different on different TRs, hence the previous answer wasn't quite right for your car. On a TR6, the starter solenoid first moves the starter gear into engagement with the flywheel, and th

Sounds more like a problem with the bendix unit. The solenoid is a magnetic switch mounted on top of the starter motor. It has two important functions: it controls the electrical circuit between the

My vote is for the bendix. I had the same problem on my TR6. I removed the starter and took it to the local alternator/starter repair shop. $60 later I had a clean, repainted, perfect starter and no
