no room on the other side. The reason i want to know which way they rotate is to change the starter. I think I have a Honda civic and hope the rover
goes the opposite way

IIRC Honda engines are known for going the 'wrong' way.

You need Honda VFR400 nc30 starter motor - it spins the opposite way to the rest because of the bikes gear driven cams.
Do not attempt to reverse the polarity on the one you have - it will go bang, I know I tried it twice
hope that helps

There is usually an arrow stamped on Bosch starters, I used a VAG starter, small, powerfull and runs the correct way

Looking at starter from the gear end, anti clockwise. I looked at Ford starters, they run clockwise, well the ones I looked at did.

Brilliant. Thats what i want. Any Idea the model etc.
Looking at Z cars they put the starter entering from the other side. This would mean major alterations to the chassis etc, so a couterclockwise
solution would be far easier.
I thought the Honda would do, as the engine rotated the other way, but alas the starter enters from the gearbox side and hence the rotates the same
way.
Looking into the Honda VFR400 route still as well

If a starter motor was just a DC motor then it should run in reverse. I'm curious as to what extra gubbins they have which is polarity
sensitive.
