LH turn. Found an Arco last on the web for 130.00 plus shipping. Seems like a good deal.

If PMGR, thats a reasonable price.

How did you determine whether you had a RH vs. LH engine?

Looking at the prop on the boat now I determined it is a LH prop. Would this not be correct for the motor/starter also? New to inboards and do not want to order the wrong part.

Prop rotation and engine rotation will be the same... the LH vs. RH naming convention for marine is not necessarily the same for automotive, so be careful how you specify. If youre confident that the prop on the boat is a LH and was correct, then a starter for a LH engine (CW) will be what you need.

TR,

Snapped a pic of the prop on the boat. I am correct with my LH rotation determination??? Want to make 100% sure before I order the starter. Double checked also that it was a PMGR starter.

Good price and appears to be no shipping charges either.
