Davidh17 0 #1 Posted October 1 Can someone please confirm that item number 310-21015 on DB Electrical (it is a starter for an 8hp kohler engine) is a suitable replacement for the original American Bosch p/n 0599629M030SM starter on a 1977 wheelhorse B-80? Thanks in advanced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 10,033 #2 Posted October 1 No, but from what I've seen, be sure the tooth count is the same as yours first, There may be a plastic cap on the end of the Bendix - it is removable. Biggest gripe with non OE (read that as offshore knockoffs) is the physical mounting to get a proper tooth engagement to the flywheel. Once you file or slot the mounting holes, you own it - non returnable.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 52,898 #3 Posted October 2 (edited) Any chance you have the spec number of the engine? I try to cross by the Kohler part number. I don't know if this helps ... http://www.psep.biz/store/kohler_41_098_08-s_starter_motor.htm This should be the one . https://www.dbelectrical.com/products/new-starter-for-kohler-john-deere-cub-cadet-k161-k181.html Edited October 2 by WHX?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
