Datsun 1200's A12 engine uses a traditional type of starter motor with a Bendix gear drive. The Aftermarket Bosch starter motor is far better the the orgiinal specification Datsun 1200 starter. The newer Datsun starter by Mitsubishi from B210 or B310 is good too and will fit the Datsun 1200's A12 engine.

Interchange
Strict interchange:
- Manual Transmission
- 23300-H5000, H5001, H7301 (Hollander 1217)
- All Sunny 1971-1979 Manual Tranmission
- (what about 1980-1982?)
- What about Datsun 1000?
- Hollander 1395 fits if you swap the drive gear
- Automatic Transmission
- Part number?
Upgrade
Reduction Starter
1977 Canada models and 1978-up USA models used an optional Reduction gear starting motor with increase torque for easy starting in sub-zero temperatures. This is also a good upgrade for high-compression engines. On the B210 it requires a different right-side engine mount.
Details on fitting this to a Datsun 1200 are needed. Can it be done?
PitRoad Reduction Starter
Pitroad for 1971-1973
For 1974-up utes, cut a bit of the right-side tower like this:
Service
Starter parts breakdown for original (2-brush) Datsun 1200 starter
- The brushes can be replaced with a large soldering iron
- The overrun cluch (drive gear) can easily be replaced
Otherwise, replace with a new, rebuilt or good used unit.
Testing Overrun Clutch
If your starter "whizzes" just after the engine catches, the Overrun clutch is almost for sure bad.
- Remove starter from engine
- With your fingers, turn the small drive gear.
- It should smoothly turn one direction
- It should NOT turn at all the other direction, not even a little bit
