I know this is off the original question but the spongey brake pedal feel may be due the fact that silicone brake fluid can make older rubbers swell?

OK - part No. on nose is C30F 11131 A is this the correct one for a manual gearbox?

When I bought my K, the seller had 3 starter motors & wasn't sure which one came with Kar so he gave me the 'best' one of the lot.

Just had it re-built yesterday & found out today that it may not be for a manual transmission (Toploader). Can someone please tell me how to tell the difference between a starter for an auto & manual? The nose has a C3---- number, the body has a C7---- number, it has 9 teeth & 2 mounting bolt holes.

Sorry I can't give the exact numbers cause I left it at work.

If I've mucked up, keep your eye out for a cheap re-built starter motor on E-Bay

Ed

From what I can see you've got a quality K code at a bargain price!

Just saw a K Code fastback on E-Bay-Item number: 260026525984 for $60,000 Aus Dollars -about $75,000 US - I've also seen them advertised here for $80 - 88,000. Whether they get that sort of money is another thing.

Cheers
