what type of starter goes to a 55 hp chrysler engine model 557HA? my old starer says its a prestolite but i cant find a replacment from them. i need help big time.
You should post pics of what you have.Some one will have one setting around.
I'm not sure the starter b-man listed for you is the right one.It's for the newer 50's According to your #s you have a 70's something motor and it takes a shorter starter.I think!!! Post a pic,with the starter on the motor.
You might be able to extend the life by taking it apart and turning the brushes upside down.J
