Starter motor Type 9 and 1600 crossflow
As nobody wants to buy my Striker I will try and press on with it, hence next daft question (Probably)
I have just hooked up my Type 9 to my 1600 crossflow but which starter motor should I be using? I have one that came with my Escort 4 speed box but I
quickly tried it with the Type 9 and on the face of it, it will not fit.
Any advice would be appreciated..
Thanks
Simon

I used the Escort crossflow starter with my type 9 so it should fit, but you'll have to open up the hole in the bellhousing coverplate.

Thanks again for your help guys, I was hoping the Escort one would fit cause it's a new one. I did notice when I put the engine and gearbox
together that the plate between was a different sahpe in the starter motor area, so I will work on reshaping this area tomorrow.
Thanks again
Simon

Count the number of teeth on the flywheel as x flows used an inertia starter and a pre engaged .IIRC the pre engaged has 130 teeth but I could be
wrong.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the shape of the teeth on the flywheel is different for the 2 types.

It is, the ring gear for use with inertia type starters have chamfered ends on the teeth to allow the pinion to engage more easily.

The ring gear for the pre engaged starter also has a chamfer on the teeth to allow easier engagement. The most reliable way to tell which you have is
to count the teeth.
