Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, engine, transmission notes, and production details before installation. Several listings include specific notes such as first production, second production, large drive end opening, California exclusions, or Borg Warner transmission requirements. Confirm clockwise rotation, 1.5 kW rating, 9-tooth drive, and 12-volt system match the original unit before mounting. Compare the starter nose, solenoid layout, and clearance around the bellhousing to the removed part.
