All Engines Starter Motor Info

Table of Contents

The following information relates to the starter motors used on all 160/MQ/MK Patrols, and also GQ/Y60 Patrols. The table can be used for cross-referencing if a starter from another model Patrol can be used in your own.

Info supplied by jwaye2 on Patrol4x4 forum, see: http://www.patrol4x4.com/forum/nissan-patrol-mq-mk-12/will-gq-starter-motor-fit-into-mk-250978

As you will determine from the table below, the GQ starter motors have different specs to all the MQ motors, and hence are not usable.
