A-Premium Starter Motor 12V 1.6KW — 9-Tooth CCW Replacement for Honda/Acura V6 — OE Fit

A-Premium's 12V 1.6KW starter motor with 9 teeth and counterclockwise rotation replaces original starters on many Honda and Acura V6 vehicles.

This replacement starter is engineered to match OE fit and function for a range of late-1990s and early-2000s Honda and Acura V6 models.
