Having trouble finding a retail outlet for the Bosch starter motor SR68X model 1.5 horsepower that was talked about on this forum. anybody know anything?
found out NAPA sells them. never mind
I just bought one from my local NAPA. Installed and working fine.
turns out the Bosch SR68X is for the 2.4 cars and the SR17X or BSSR17X is for the 2.2 liter cars
The SR 68X fits all 911 up thru 89. it is the 1.5 hp version, eliminates hot crank problems. The 17X is the 3/4 hp version. It will work fine if you want to use it, it is more prone to hot crank problems
^ This info, from this source = enough for me.Quote:

Parts Geek believe it or not has a better price and a better return core price. Like a lot better. Same part.
