I am trying to figure out where to get a specific part of my starter as the shop working on the car can not source it and neither can the local Toyota dealership.
The car in question is a 1978 BJ 40 with the engine from a BJ 42 (3.5L Turbo Diesel 3B) running both 24v and 12v systems.
There is a lot of guessing going on as we are not sure of the age of the engine in the car nor what starter that is since the starter for the 3B engine should have 11 teeth but the one in there has only 9 teeth...and it seems to work quite well both on 12v and 24v somewhat puzzling the electronics shop that was trying to fix the starter.
Here is a picture of my problem, any and all help is appreciated here(and i am in Finland so no point in telling me to contact this or that shop to have it fixed, i need parts) and the specific part i need is that small silver/metal cylinder sitting on the side/top/bottom of the red unit.
and if that picture does not work here is a link to it on my flickr.com page
