Starter Volvo 1800 (B18/B20)

Slow cranking, a clicking solenoid or a starter motor that grinds without turning the engine over can point to worn brushes, a tired solenoid or play in the bushings – common things to check when a B18 or B20 starter motor begins to fail. This category gathers wear and service parts for these very units, so you can rebuild your existing starter motor instead of replacing the whole thing.

The group includes a brush set and solenoid, bushings as well as a battery cable and earth cable, complemented by a nut, screw and spring washer for installation. Keep in mind that the electrical system differs over the years: the earliest Jensen-built 1800 cars had 6 volts, while the car switched to 12 volts during 1963. Check the voltage and wiring before ordering, since the cables and connectors should match your car's specification.
