Did you check that the starter is on tight? If it is on tight, you need a starter and/or a flywheel.

holy shizzy dude, I was kinda browsing the titles so I wasn't reading carefully, and I thought you said "help my mother is dying." Glad that's not the case...

Sounds as if the starter solenoid isn't retracting. If its the same as Sera (will check on my parts CD tonight) I can supply a secondhand one.

Forgot to check last night.

Starter motor is low down behind engine below inlet manifold. Sera is held with two bolts - one coming in from one direction, other coming from other direction. Assuming same flywheel is used, and bolting pattern same, then it will work. I've got visitors tonight, but I'll try and check after they've gone.
