Description

S0978 Replacement Starter Motor

For a S0978 starter motor enquiry, use Lucas reference LRS00978 alongside the vehicle and original unit details. The listed electrical rating is 12V 1.1kW. A starter motor turns the engine during starting; the electrical rating and mechanical engagement must suit the application. Applications include selected Ford Courier (Fiesta) 1.3 Petrol variants.

Key Features and Benefits

  • 12V electrical system: match the vehicle voltage before selecting a unit.
  • 1.1kW power: compare the listed rating with the original starter motor.
  • 23-tooth pinion: compare gear engagement and pinion position.
  • Clockwise rotation: check the specified direction before fitting.
  • M8 connector / terminal: check the connection against the original unit.

When Should You Replace Your Starter Motor?
