Whats the difference in starter motors. I have an auto L series starter motor and I put it straight onto my RS manual turbo gearbox with EJ22 motor. Now I don't have a flywheel on the motor yet and not power to give it a spin.

So question is whats stopping me from using or rebuilding my L series starter.

Also for those doing conversions this could be a good topic for all types of starters and what they came out of and what you can use them in. anything subaru from the day dot through to now.

The L series starter motors will interchange with the Liberty manuals and L series manuals but only the Auto Libertys fit the auto libertys.

So the auto L starter I have should work with my EJ manual box?

Indeedly do. The auto Lib ones have a larger flange on them so you can only use it in an auto

& liberty n/a motors & turbo motor starters are the same .
part numbers are the same .
