Starter windings

David G · Aug 12, 2015

I am changing the starter out on MH 44 to a spare one that I have. The insulation on the wires going to the field coils is missing in some places. Is there a shellac or something I can put on them?

A good quality hi-temp silicone like permatex works and you can spread it on with a small paintbrush. Just make sure the copper is clean and may even rough it up with a scratch pad.

They make a brush on insulation just for that. I have it in the shop, but can't remember the name of it. Varnish will work too with many coats. Just make sure the windings aren't shorted together.

It is called liquid tape.
