Im in need of a new starter for a 1.6 KA sport thanks to some muppet starting the car in gear...

The local scrappy has a load of KA 1.3 starters but none from the 1.6...


Does any clever soul on here know if the 1.3 and the 1.6 starters are the same for both cars?

no

Do you mean "no, I don't know" or "no, they're not the same"?

not even 1.3 starters are the same. duratec and kent not the same.

The RoCam Duratec 1.3 and 1.6 starters are the same, it's the older 1.3 (Valencia/Kent) Endura-E engine that's different. I have to say that the solenoid may be 90 out and could foul on the block web. The StreetKa 1.6 engine is the same and some Fiesta RoCam 1.3's are also the same. I'll get you a part number when I'm back at work!!
