This is a common problem on all CVH starters, they are too close to the
exhaust and overheat.
Normally causes very slow turning over when cold.
Some engines did have a heat shield, if you can fabricate something it
would help.

Hi, all
Is there a known problem with starter motors on XR2 engine??
I'm on my 4th start motor since getting the car on the road in August
2010.
I replaced the starter motor with a recondition one in August 2010.
This worked fine untill August 2011, this was replaced under warrenty
with another reconditioned unit. It was replaced in October 2011 with
a brand new unit. Now its getting difficult to start (second attempt)
and yesterday started making a whining noise when turning the engine
over.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers
Chris
