i'm guessing a stuck starter solenoid--it doesnt look like new starters are available anymore what would my best replacement be? i would appreciate suggestions--thankyou

Sounds like a sticking plunger to me. Denso 280-0167 would be the direct replacement (1.4kw) but you can also use Denso 280-0166 (1.8kw). The Denso 280-0166 is larger dimensionally. You could also rebuild your current starter.
