Mitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 9TH CW M1T31073AMA
This Mitsubishi starter motor is a new 12V unit with clockwise rotation and a 9 tooth pinion, identified by part number M1T31073AMA. It is listed as a 2kW starter motor for dry clutch applications, and the mounting pattern is specified as a 3 hole design with mount centres of 120mm, 95mm, and 70mm.
Physical dimensions matter on starter replacement work, and this unit is described with an overall length of 221mm, a flange diameter of 84mm, and a nose cone length of 62mm. The mount hole diameter is M8 x 1.25, the pinion diameter is 35mm, and the pinion at rest measures 26mm.
It is a Mitsubishi branded starter motor supplied new, not remanufactured, and it carries a 2 years / 400,000km warranty. The listed features are small size, low mass, high power, high torque, and high reliability, which are the kinds of points that matter when matching a replacement starter to the original unit.

Application and Buying Notes
When replacing a starter motor, the safest match is the part number and the physical mounting pattern. This unit is identified as M1T31073AMA and uses a 3 hole mount with centres at 120mm, 95mm, and 70mm, so those dimensions should be checked against the removed starter before purchase.
The electrical and drive details also need to line up. This starter is 12V, clockwise rotation, with a 9 tooth pinion, 35mm pinion diameter, and 2kW power rating. If the original starter differs in voltage, rotation, tooth count, or pinion size, it should not be assumed to be interchangeable.
Clearance around the bellhousing is another practical check. The unit has an overall length of 221mm, a flange diameter of 84mm, and a nose cone length of 62mm, which can matter where space is tight or where the starter sits close to surrounding brackets and housings.
This starter is marked for dry clutch applications, so that detail should be compared with the vehicle setup and the original component arrangement. If there is any uncertainty, compare the old starter side by side with the listed dimensions and connector points before fitting.
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 M1T31073AMA 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 120mm, Mount Centres C 70mm, Nose Cone Length 62mm, Overall Length 221mm, Pinion Diameter 35mm, Rotation CW, Voltage 12.

Mitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 9Th CW. Part number M1T31073AMA 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 M1T31073AMA, 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.
Available application references include FE2) 2009, FE4) 2011, FE6) 2011, FE6) 2012, FE8) 2008, FE8) 2009. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.
Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility using part number M1T31073AMA, the 12V clockwise specification, the 9 tooth pinion, and the listed 3 hole mounting dimensions before ordering.
