OEG Parts New Starter SAEJ1171 Compatible with 1996-2007 Mercruiser & Compatible with Volvo Penta V6 V8 Engines Upgrades OEM Delco & Mando 863007A1 50-863007A1

Awesome price and works great in my 2002 Regal cabin cruiser. This was about 1/4 of the price!

It fit my 2007 Tahoe 216 boat perfect. Easy install and looked identical to the stock starter and it works perfectly.

***Quick update for the review below. As of March 2021 this still turns over without any issues. It has been a great starter and even better value. I'll be honest, I thought I would have some type of issue by now but it has been rock solid!***After reading all of the mixed reviews I wanted to add mine to the mix since it seems like there are good ones and bad ones coming from the manufacturer.Out of the box it was very clean, appears well made and machining, fit, etc. was above average (especially for a price of $65). Bolted in/wired up in no time and cranked without issue first try and every after. Have cranked it over 50+ times in the past week and will get a work out this summer with all the starting and stopping while pulling tubes & skis.Will update at the end of the 2019 season and adjust my review accordingly. Hoping this is one of the good ones.

Installed in June. Worked great for the first two times out in our boat and now Labor Day weekend it has failed.

They product worked as it should. Shipping was great!

Good fitment. Arrived promptly. I purchased this starter in November of 2015 for the Mercruiser 5.7 ltr. engine in our boat. So it has lasted seven years. Not bad! It's starting to fail now with a click on ignition attempts until it randomly starts or I bang on it with a hammer. Time to replace.We are not frequent boaters. So a couple of those 7 years we may have only gone out 3 to 4 times. Other years we may have averaged 60 to 100 hours on the water. When we go out we restart frequently for skiing, tubing, and kneeboarding.Soooo..... I am happy to take a chance on purchasing this after market unit again. The price has gone up $33 in 7 years but still better than $230 to $280 for OEM (especially if it again stays reliable for seven seasons.) If it is still reliable after 5 years I may purchase another to have on hand when I need to switch out again.

Great value boat starts much faster

Had it installed in a couple of hours after cleaning all contacts, cleaned the threads for the long bolts, cranked and started like it should. Getting it tin the water is next, but, it looks good! Great value for the money so far!
