Starter Motor for Onan P216 P218 P220 & John Deere 317 1979 On
10-tooth 12V starter for Onan P-series engines in John Deere and Cub Cadet machines
This is a direct-fit replacement starter motor built to OEM specifications for Onan P216, P218 and P220 engines from 1979 onward, as fitted to John Deere and Cub Cadet garden tractors. It is a complete, ready-to-fit unit engineered to match the form, fit and function of the original equipment, so it bolts straight in place of the original starter with no adaptation required.
The unit is a permanent magnet direct drive (PMDD) starter running on a standard 12-volt electrical system, turning counter-clockwise (CCW) with a 10-tooth drive pinion and a motor housing length of 4.033 inches. It replaces Onan 191-1828 (also listed as 1911828) and John Deere HE191-1828. Onan engines were used across a wide range of lawn, garden and utility equipment, so matching the tooth count and housing length to your original unit is the fastest way to confirm fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this starter motor fit without any modification?
Yes, this is a direct OEM-fit replacement for the listed Onan-powered John Deere and Cub Cadet machines and requires no modification to install.
What is included in the box?
One complete starter motor unit, ready to fit in place of the original.
How do I know my old starter has failed?
Common signs include a clicking noise with no engine turnover, a slow or labouring crank, or no response at all when the key is turned or the start button is pressed.
How can I confirm this is the correct starter for my machine?
Check the number stamped on your original starter against the cross reference table above - Onan 191-1828 or John Deere HE191-1828 confirms the match. Otherwise compare the tooth count and motor housing length, as Onan engines were fitted across several models with different starter specifications.
