Frequently Asked Questions

What are the common signs of a failing marine starter motor?

Common signs include a clicking sound but no engine crank, grinding noises during start-up, slow or sluggish cranking, or the starter spinning without engaging the flywheel. Corrosion on terminals or a burning smell can also indicate issues.

How can I verify this starter motor is compatible with my Cummins Mercruiser 1.7L engine?

The most reliable way is to compare the OEM part number from your original starter motor with the cross-reference numbers provided in our listing (e.g., 879194371 or 882481). Also, confirm your engine is a 1.7L Diesel DTI or CMD 1.7L MS from 1998 onwards.

What is a PMGR starter, and why is it beneficial for marine applications?

PMGR stands for Permanent Magnet Gear Reduction. This type of starter uses permanent magnets and a gear reduction system, making it more compact, lighter, and more powerful than older starter designs. It provides higher torque output for efficient engine cranking, which is ideal for demanding marine use.
