Starter motor query

« on: September 28, 2015, 03:12:19 PM »

Hi,
I have a 1979 131 1300 CL OHV engined car.

Does anyone know if this starter motor is the correct one for it?

Femsa, numbers on casing are 1.3kw, MTD12-14

Thanks
Pete

Don't know about numbers, but the OHV motors had the starter on the opposite side to the DOHC motors. The nose and mounting holes are a mirror image.

Hi,
Thanks. So, does that mean a starter from a twin cam Supermirafiori will fit my OHV 1300, just flipped round the other way?

No. They are not interchangeable, they're a mirror image mounting wise, and the bolt holes don't line up.
