Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my marine starter motor needs replacing?
Common symptoms of a failing starter motor include the engine not cranking or cranking slowly, hearing a single click but no engine turnover, a grinding noise during start-up, or a burning smell. It's crucial to first check your battery and connections for corrosion or low voltage, as these can mimic starter issues. If these are in good order, your starter may need replacement.
What's the difference between an 8-tooth and 9-tooth starter drive?
The "tooth count" refers to the number of teeth on the pinion gear, which engages with your engine's flywheel. It's a critical specification for proper fitment. An 8-tooth starter motor will only correctly engage with a flywheel designed for an 8-tooth pinion. Using the wrong tooth count can cause damage to both the starter and the flywheel. Many Suzuki 115-140HP engines use a 9-tooth starter, but some specific models or older units may require an 8-tooth. Always visually verify the tooth count on your original starter.
Is this an OEM part?
No, this is a high-quality aftermarket replacement starter motor from Moto-Electrical. Aftermarket parts are designed to meet or exceed the performance and durability of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts, often at a more competitive price, and are typically manufactured to exacting quality control standards.
How important is marine-grade construction for a starter motor?
Marine-grade construction is extremely important for components operating in a marine environment. Unlike automotive starters, marine starters are designed with features such as sealed housings and corrosion-resistant materials to protect against saltwater, moisture intrusion, and harsh conditions that can lead to rust and electrical shorts. Using an automotive starter in a marine application can be dangerous due to the risk of explosion from ignition of fuel fumes.
