50-864340A2 / Volvo Penta 3860764 Heavy-Duty Starter, 1.7kW | Recmar REC3885317

REC3885317 is Recmar's new 12V, 1.7kW heavy-duty marine starter motor for the catalogue family led by MerCruiser OEM 50-864340A2 and Volvo Penta 3860764. RECMAR associates this exact row with V6/V8 and GM 454 / 7.4-litre applications.

It has an 11-tooth pinion, a nominal 14-inch flywheel application and diagonal two-bolt mounting. It is a separate product from REC50-863007A1, with a different rated output, solenoid reference and primary OEM mapping.

Is this the correct starter?

Choose REC3885317 when all of the following agree with the starter or parts information for your engine:

• The specified Recmar part number is REC3885317.
• The specified OEM number is MerCruiser 50-864340A2 or Volvo Penta 3860764.
• The application requires the 12V, 1.7kW heavy-duty version.
• The application is within the RECMAR GM 454 / 7.4-litre catalogue family.
• The existing starter has an 11-tooth pinion, diagonal two-bolt mounting and the listed 14-inch flywheel arrangement.

Important: do not select REC3885317 only because another seller lists 863007A1 or Volvo Penta 3885317. In RECMAR's exact catalogue rows, those references map to the separate 1.4kW REC50-863007A1 product. The 1.7kW unit has not been proven as a universal upgrade for every 1.4kW application.

Need the other version? If your application calls for MerCruiser 50-863007A1, its short form 863007A1, or Volvo Penta 3885317, view the Recmar REC50-863007A1 1.4kW starter.

Specifications

Verified catalogue references

Supplier and aftermarket lists may also show 863007A1, Volvo Penta 3885317, several Mercury 8M numbers, OMC numbers, Sierra or Mallory references against this broader starter family. These references remain disputed between the two RECMAR products and should not be treated as proof of exact interchangeability. Contact TMP Global for a fitment check if one of those is the only number available.

Check before ordering

If you are uncertain, send TMP Global the number on the installed starter, the engine model and serial information, and clear photographs of the mounting flange, pinion and terminal side before ordering.
