_ethrty-Andy_ 2136 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 Hey guys. picked up a starter but it was night time so didnt check it over. Went to install today and noticed it has tabs as terminals rather than nuts. Never seen a starter like this.. anyone recognise what is it out of? And more importantly is it going to bolt onto the M40G240 and mesh with the M20 flywheel like the M20 starter thats on there now? I can make the wiring work. Part numbers on it (which dont come up on realoem in neither 7 or 11 digit form) are 0 001 311 125 1 005 823 339 thanks, Andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 Andy, looks like one I pulled from an early E28 520, M20. I believe the early ones of these had these, they're quite a bit bigger than the later M20 starters, but fit fine, mine also had tabs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_ethrty-Andy_ 2136 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 yeah i was sure it wasnt just my imagination that it seemed bigger. It fitting is what i wanted to hear! Pretty sure its out of an E30 though (seller may be able to verify on here). The early M20s didnt have a double mass flywheel or anything like that i need to be concerned about?

Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 The one I stripped had a normal M20 flywheel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
