Are all EA82 starter motors interchangable?

Post by SuburuVortex85 » Wed Jan 16, 2013 1:23 pm

Hi Suburu fans, I have an 85 Vortex XT very rare car with the MPFI EA82 motor with auto gearbox and the starter has become sticky. My cheapest option it appears is to replace the starter and I was wondering are the starters the same for all the EA82 motors? That is auto/manual, cam/spfi/mpfi, leone/XT.

Thanks for any help.

I'm sure the manual starters are different to the auto ones. But I would say that the auto's starter is the same for any of the EA82's.
