I have an AMC Motorola starter that I am trying to identify. It has the five ribbed snout on it with the date code(?)"D6FF" followed by "11131AA". There is also a "D" stamped on the outside housing. I suspect an early 290 starter? It seems to have been oversprayed at some point with 1968 type AMC blue.

Unfotrunately I have sent it out for rebuilding, so I don't have access for any photos.

Any help appreciated!

Chris

I think you mean Ford starter?
74 Hornet Hatchback X twins (since 1977)
62 American Convertible (still worth the $50 I spent in 1973!) AMCRC #513, AMO #384
70 AMX 360 4-speed (since 1981)

I could be wrong on the Motorola, but it is an AMC starter of approximately the vintage we usually deal with, ie 66 and up V8. I thought there was some difference between three and five rib front gear casings? Not a functional difference, just related to era.

Thanks!
