I can offer an F5a core ie. bare motor in unknown condition. It could be turned by hand last I looked at it...12 months ago. Likely to need rebuilding.
I have heard a whisper of another motor coming my way but don't yet know what it is. (2 ev conversions happening in Caloundra)

I think he's looking for plug leads, not a lead on where to find a motor. :lol:

Take the originals into supercheap and match them up to ones hanging up. Daewoo matiz ones work too.

you can get replacement kits from Top Gun, through autobahn.

i went in to get some 10mm leads made recently to find there was an off the shelf kit listed in the book!

Goes to show how easily the English language can lead one astray. (not denying my own shortcomings) :P

Anyone else has this prob. just use string or anything else to approximate the length of each lead, the parts store can make up a set from individual pre assembled stock - you will need to specify what ends are req'd ie. straight or right angle on the dizzy.
