Starter Motor for Perkins & Kioti DK65S - 12V 3.2kW 10-Tooth CW
Fits Kioti DK65S / DK65SC (Perkins 3-165) · Replaces Perkins 2873K405, 2873K624
This new aftermarket starter motor is a direct-fit replacement for Perkins industrial and agricultural diesel engines, including the Perkins 3-165 64.4HP engine fitted to Kioti DK65S and DK65SC tractors. It is built to the same mounting, output and mechanical specification as the original equipment unit so it bolts straight into place.
It runs on 12 volts, delivers 3.2kW through a planetary gear-reduction (PLGR) motor, turns clockwise (CW) and uses a 10-tooth drive gear on an 89mm spigot with 3 mounting holes. It replaces Perkins 2873K405 and 2873K624, Mahle MS399, Wood Auto STR52056 and Dixie TS-6209 - please compare the part number on your old starter, or the specifications below, before ordering. Fitting is a straightforward like-for-like swap: disconnect the battery, remove the mounting bolts securing the original starter, transfer the wiring across, and bolt this unit into place in the same orientation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this starter fit my Kioti DK65S without modification?
Yes. It is listed for the Kioti DK65S and DK65SC with the Perkins 3-165 64.4HP diesel engine and bolts straight in.
How do I check it matches my old starter?
Look for one of the part numbers in the cross reference table on your original starter's label, or check that it is 12V, 3.2kW, 10-tooth, clockwise, with an 89mm spigot and 3 mounting holes.
What's included?
The complete starter motor with solenoid and drive gear, ready to fit.
How can I tell my old starter has failed?
Common signs include a clicking noise when you turn the key, the engine failing to crank, the starter freewheeling without turning the engine, or a burning smell from the motor.
What does PLGR mean?
PLGR stands for planetary gear reduction - internal gearing that gives a compact starter high cranking torque, which suits diesel engines.
