I echo Josef=E2=80=99s opinion.  I have never seen the need for a =
reduction motor.  The starter in my BT7 works faultlessly and I think I =
have only had it rebuilt once in decades of use.

We are selling these gear reduction starters and here I am responsible =
for customer complains with these. I can only say, the recuction =
starters fail very often and do not recommend them anymore to my =
customers. Many do not turn after a couple of months in use, others do =
not move in anymore and so fail completely.

I have the original starter motors in my Austin-Healeys, Daimlers and =
Morris and when they are once reconditioned/repaired they work for many =
years without failiure.

They are extremely solid compared to the modern gear reduction starters. =
I repair the original starters and would never change to the modern =
alternative.

Bolting it in place wasn't fun but that is another story.
