Starter Motor for Briggs & Stratton 11-18HP Cub Cadet - 12V 16T CCW

Replaces Briggs & Stratton 399169, 494990, 497401, 795121 and Arrowhead SBS0004 - 0.9kW PMDD

This 12V starter motor is built to OEM specifications for Briggs & Stratton engines from 11HP to 18HP, engineered as a 0.9kW permanent magnet direct drive (PMDD) unit with a 16-tooth drive gear for correct flywheel ring gear engagement. PMDD construction keeps the housing compact and the overall weight down while still delivering strong cranking torque.

It turns counter-clockwise (CCW) to match the original equipment rotation and weighs 2.73kg (6lbs), making it a straightforward swap for a worn or failed original starter with no modification required to the mounting bracket or wiring loom. The drive gear measures 40.6mm (1.598 inch) outside diameter and the field case is 108mm (4.25 inch) long, replacing both the 4-1/4 inch and 3-3/4 inch field case units. Please note this starter is intended for engines with plastic flywheels.

Key Features

  • 12V, 0.9kW permanent magnet direct drive (PMDD) starter

  • Counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation to match OEM spec
  • 8.0mm unthreaded mounting ear holes, as per original
  • Housing weight 2.73kg (6lbs)
  • 12-month warranty as standard

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit without modification?

Yes, this is a direct replacement for the original starter motor on compatible Briggs & Stratton engines - mounting points, drive gear and wiring connections match the factory part, so no cutting, drilling or rewiring is needed.

What's included?

One 12V, 16-tooth starter motor, ready to fit. Mounting bolts and wiring are reused from your original unit.

How do I know my old starter has failed?

Common signs include a single clicking noise with no engine turnover, a slow or labouring crank that gets weaker as the battery drains, unusual grinding when the key is turned, or no response at all when starting.

Does it matter that my flywheel is metal?

Yes. This starter is specified for engines fitted with plastic flywheels. If your engine has an aluminium or steel ring gear, please check with our technical team before ordering.

Is this starter new or reconditioned?

This is a new aftermarket unit built to OEM specifications, not a reconditioned or rebuilt part, so you are not inheriting wear from a previous life on another machine.
