    “We are pleased to expand our 24V starter lineup and provide our customers with an increasing number of starter options,” said Jonathan Smith, assistant director of sales and marketing for Prestolite. “The M93 and M97 each deliver a combination of premium performance and exceptional value that helps increase vehicle uptime and improve ROI for our customers.”

    Features and benefits of the new starters include:

    • 10 and 12 tooth models
    • Clockwise rotation
    • SAE J542 Type 1
    • Integral Magnetic Switch (IMS) helps eliminate voltage drop issues by minimizing wiring between the relay and solenoid
    • Electrical soft start helps eliminate ring gear damage
    • In-line, gear reduced for more power in a small package
    • Case ground (M93)
    • All-new, no core
