STARTER MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The starter motors used for both the 4.0L and the
4.7L engines available in this model are very similar,
but are not interchangeable. Both starter motors are
mounted with two screws to the automatic transmis-
sion torque converter housing and are located on the
right side of the engine.
Each of these starter motors incorporates several
of the same features to create a reliable, efficient,compact, lightweight and powerful unit. The electric
motors of both starters feature four electromagnetic
field coils wound around four pole shoes, and four
brushes contact the motor commutator. Both starter
motors are rated at 1.4 kilowatts (about 1.9 horse-
power) output at 12 volts.
Both of these starter motors are serviced only as a
unit with their starter solenoids, and cannot be
repaired. If either component is faulty or damaged,
the entire starter motor and starter solenoid unit
must be replaced.
