  • JLO Rockwell 295 starter

    Hello, I have a JLO Rockwell 295 motor in my MaxII that is seized. I am currently working to free it up (it has been sitting for 15+ years) but what I will need is an electric starter.
    The bendix is just a big ole' rust heap right now and i am trying to free it up. Does anyone know where to get a new/used starter for the 295 or even a rebuild kit?

    Any help would be great!!!

    This is the same machine that my family always used all winter since the 70's until the mid 90's. I am not sure if this is the original motor or not as no one can remember. I can not find the body tag only the engine tag.

    Let me take a look at how many i might have around. It may be a week before I can get to where they're at though so be patient with me on this.

    Thanks

        I wire brushed the starter and it shows Hitachi s108-34.

          I probably know a guy looking also, I had thought it might be a ground issue but appears not.
          You guys can figure out who that would be.

          My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
          Joe Camel never does that.

                      I was at Steves today and walked past 3 295's and forgot all about it. I will go back over wednesday and take one or 2 off and check them out. By the looks of things I need to start selling some tires!!

                          No I do not Don. I have at least 3 sets of rawhide 3's but I have to figure out what I'm putting on the tank trainer still. Just might be a set of new carlisles that goes on the chopping block. Too early to tell at the moment but I'll keep y'all posted.

                            My motor is still seized up tight. have everything off but he Jug, Flywheel and clutch. trying to find a puller to get those off. I am now wondering if the crank and piston are both seized since the jug will no move even with all the bolts off. Once i see if it is worth rebuilding I will definitely know if i need a starter. Hopefully know something this weekend. If we can not rebuild then I will be selling some parts for sure.....
