This is a new, genuine Kubota starter motor, part number 16235-63010. It is a 12 V, 1.4 kW unit with a 13-tooth pinion for Kubota 05 Series engines. Kubota engine dealers list it for some builds of the D905, D1005, D1105, D1305, V1305 and V1505 diesels and for the WG1605.
Replace a starter when it clicks but will not turn, cranks slowly on a good battery, grinds on engagement, or pulls too much current. Rule out the battery, cables, grounds and the start signal first. Kubota built 05 Series engines with more than one starter. This is the 13-tooth one. Starter 16285-63010 for the same engines has a 9-tooth pinion, and 37560-63010 is another separate number, so the engine model alone is not enough to order by.
Confirm Fitment Before You Order
Kubota lists several starters for the same 05 Series engines. This one is 12 V, 1.4 kW with a 13-tooth pinion. Starter 16285-63010 is 1.2 kW with a 9-tooth pinion, and 37560-63010 is a 1.2 kW starter with its own number. Both are different parts. Count the teeth on your old starter, then send us your engine model, the engine serial number and the number on the old starter. Call 530-668-0818 and we will confirm the exact match at no charge before anything ships.

Disconnect the battery before removal. Before you fit the new starter, count the pinion teeth and compare the mounting flange and terminals with the old one. Clean the mounting face and the ground path, check the flywheel ring gear for worn or chipped teeth, and tighten the mounting bolts to Kubota’s torque spec.
