Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit my Yamaha 15HP?

Yes, it fits 1984-1997 Yamaha 9.9HP and 15HP 2-stroke outboards equipped with the Hitachi starter system. Please verify your old starter has 10 teeth.

How do I check if I have a Hitachi system?

Check the label on your old starter. If it has a part number starting with "S106-", it is a Hitachi unit. This starter is a direct replacement for those models.

What is the rotation?

This starter motor rotates in a **Counter-Clockwise (CCW)** direction when viewing the pinion gear.

Note: Visual match does not guarantee fitment. Please verify your OEM part number.
