Product Specifications and Features


This 12V starter motor (10-tooth pinion) is supplied as Recmar REC3854190 and is intended as a replacement for marine Ford V8 applications using the Volvo Penta/MerCruiser reference 3854190. It’s commonly used on Ford 302 (5.0L) engines found in MerCruiser, Volvo Penta and OMC installations where the correct OEM number match is confirmed.

Before ordering: confirm your engine model/serial and the part number (and tooth count) on the starter currently fitted, as fitment can vary by engine version.

  • Voltage: 12V
  • Pinion teeth: 10
