🔧 Product Description

Brand-new genuine Volvo Penta heavy-duty 24-volt starter motor for selected 16-litre marine and industrial engines. The clockwise-rotation unit uses a 12-tooth pinion and three-point mounting arrangement matched to the original flywheel ring gear and electrical system.

⚙️ Key Features

  • 24V heavy-duty starter motor
  • Clockwise rotation viewed from the drive end
  • 12-tooth pinion and three-mount housing
  • High-torque design for 16-litre diesel cranking
  • Complete starter assembly with integral solenoid
  • Engine type: Volvo Penta/TAMD/TAD/TWD 16-litre diesel
  • Also supersedes Volvo part number 872364

🔌 Function

Engages the flywheel ring gear and cranks the engine at the speed required for compression ignition.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • Solenoid clicks without cranking
  • Slow cranking with known-good batteries and cables
  • Starter remains engaged after engine start
  • Grinding caused by worn pinion or ring gear
  • Heat, smoke or excessive current draw

🛠️ Service Notes

  • Disconnect the batteries before touching starter cables, and label the main and control connections as they come off
  • Inspect the ring gear teeth before fitting a new motor; a chipped or worn ring gear will ruin the new pinion
  • Mount the motor square on clean faces with whatever shims the installation uses, so pinion engagement matches what the workshop manual for your engine specifies — never leave shims out to make it fit
  • Clean the main and earth terminals back to bright metal, tighten to the specified figure and refit the insulating boots; a great many failed starters are really voltage drop in the cables and earth path
  • Crank with the engine unable to start first, listening for clean engagement and release, then feel the terminals for heat after several attempts
