Mitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 9 Tooth CW M8T70975AMA
This Mitsubishi starter motor is a 12V unit with 9 teeth, clockwise rotation, and a 2.5kW power rating. It is listed as an original equipment part, with part number M8T70975AMA, and is supplied as a new starter motor rather than a remanufactured unit.
The mounting and sizing details are important on a starter like this. Key measurements include a 105mm mount centres A dimension, 82.5mm flange diameter, 11mm mount hole diameter, 258mm overall length, and 35.5mm pinion diameter. The pinion at rest measures 26.5mm, which can be useful when comparing against the unit being replaced.
Because starter motors need to match the vehicle application closely, the most reliable way to assess suitability is to compare the part number, electrical rating, rotation, tooth count, and mounting style. This Mitsubishi unit is a 2-hole starter motor designed for direct specification matching rather than guesswork.

Application and Buying Notes
When checking whether this starter motor is the correct replacement, start with the part number M8T70975AMA and confirm the vehicle’s required starter specification. A 12V, 9 tooth, clockwise unit with a 2.5kW rating will not suit every Mitsubishi application, so the electrical and mechanical details need to line up exactly.
The mounting dimensions are just as important as the electrical specification. This unit uses a 2-hole mount, with 105mm mount centres A, 82.5mm flange diameter, and 11mm mount hole diameter. If the old starter has a different mounting layout or the measurements do not match, it should not be assumed compatible.
Physical size can also help avoid a costly mismatch. The overall length is 258mm, the pinion diameter is 35.5mm, and the pinion at rest is 26.5mm. These measurements are useful when comparing against the removed starter, especially where access is tight or the original part is worn and details are hard to read.
The warranty listed is 2 Years 400,000km, which provides a clear service-life reference for normal use within its stated terms. As with any rotating electrical component, correct diagnosis matters: confirm the starter fault first, check cable condition, and make sure the vehicle’s charging and starting circuit are in good order before fitting a replacement.
Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.
For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number M8T70975AMA helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.
Relevant published details for this unit include Type STARTER MOTOR, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty 2 Years 400,000km, Mount Centres A 105mm, Number of Teeth 9, Pinion at Rest 26.5mm, Power Rating 2.5kW, Suits Unit Make Mitsubishi, New / Reman. New, Weight 5.68kg.
Additional published details for cross-checking include Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. M8T70975AMA, Brand MITSUBISHI, Description Mitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 9TH CW, Flange Diameter 82.5mm, Mount Hole Diameter 11, Overall Length 258mm, Pinion Diameter 35.5mm, Rotation CW, Voltage 12.
Mitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 9TH CW. Part number M8T70975AMA should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.
For part number M8T70975AMA, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.
For a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.
Where no verified application list is available, the part number, mounting details, connector style, and published specifications should be used as the primary selection criteria.
Compatibility note: Please confirm fitment by matching part number M8T70975AMA, 12V voltage, 9 tooth count, clockwise rotation, 2-hole mount, and the listed mounting dimensions against the vehicle and the removed unit before purchase.
