What model starter motor is this?

Can anyone tell me what model starter motor this is as it has no model number on it and I need to get a new one as this has started smoking.
It is fitted to a silvertop Zetec with MT75 gearbox.

I thought the CVH one was a LR707? and was needed to fit to a type 9 not an MT75.

Can anyone confirm this.

I need a model number really. Can anyone suggest a good place to get a replacement or should any motor factors do an exchange?

Pinto starter has more gear showing and a longer snout.
Remeber Ford used the parts bin heavily so a DOHC starter may well be identical to a CVH one.
Also count the teeth on the cog, i think it should be 10 but don't hold me to that.

the dohc and the 1.8 cvh fit the silvertop to type 9 the MT75 should be the same as it is the relationship between the starter motor and the flywheel, the MT75 gearbox face is still flush with the back of the engine block as is the type 9. The only time this would affect the starter is if the gearbox was recessed for the starter

I see your point there.
I have searched and found pictures of the LR707 and LRS543 and they look identical. The LR707 (CVH) dimensions seem to be exactly the same as mine from the pictures on other sites and meany's picture above, so it looks ike that is what it is.

Thanks for all your replies.

707 definately fits the zetec to type 9 setup. It has narrower main body than 543.

as you say really need a model number or doner car details if doing a motor factor exchange, other option (what i had to do) is a breaker who will let you rummage through his shelves to find a match, or get yours overhauled.

if you post some measurements up someone might be able to advise a alternative

"Thats a starter mate"

Looked at mine and it looks the same like i said apart from the shape of that nose bit on the solenoid which could just be different makes. Mines a cvh one.

IIRC its the throw of the gear thats different them.

If it is cvh then you need one from a 1.8 cvh sierra vintage 90ish. If its 2 litre dohc then itl be a later one like 92 93 i think.
