Title: Earthing of the engine block Post by: FERGTS246 on 19 June, 2021, 06:26:41 PM Hi, Does anyone know how the Flaminia's engine block is earthed?
Basically my Flaminia's starter motor is activating erratically, which I think, might be a bad earth situation for the block? Thanks in advance.

If they are worn, the starter wont engage thereby saving damage to the commutator due to excessive arcing. Brian |
