With my knackered shoulders I'm looking into converting to electric start and a wile ago found info on a "dynostart" system that is belt drive and a bolt-on type conversion.

Of course I didn't keep a note and I've lost the link and can't find anything useful on t'internet.

HELP!!!!!

Hi Richard,

Maybe Dyna rather than Dyno...

A wee update
Found a bloke on ebay called 'nicktheengineer' who was extremely helpful and informative and can supply pretty much everything I need new for about £500 including a mounting bracket.

Given the pain and suffering associated with trying to start the car with my knackered shoulders (yes, yes, a starting handle would be better!!) it sounds like a great investment.
