Starter - LUCAS & BOSCH: Description

XJS models use a Lucas M80R starter, while XJ6 models use a Bosch DW 1.7K starter. Starters consist of a series-wound, 4-pole, 4-brush motor, utilizing either wedge-shaped or conventional brushes. When starter is energized, a housing-mounted solenoid shifts the roller-type starter clutch and pinion, engaging the ring gear. Starters are pre-engaged type.
