Thanks for getting back to me partner don't know why it wasn't in there I put it in there but anyway it's a 1986 Bayliner Capri bowrider wake boat with a 4-cylinder Volvo Penta engine trying to find the engine plate number I have a serial number but that's it

If your engine is a fresh water cooled slant 4 cylinder genuine Volvo engine this is the Sierra # 18-5906.
Bayliner used that model engine at that time.
If you are still in doubt try to post a picture of your engine.

Hey Kenny! Thanks for getting back to me! Well here's a picture of the motor hopefully what you sent me is correct cuz honestly I can't find it and really just in lieu throwing in an automotive starter! I'll wait till you get back to me to verify this might be the right one thanks again Kenny

Hey Kenny, also is there any type of plenum cover I can put on this old girl to cover up this rust bucket? Let me know thank you so much.

 

[kenny nunez]

That is the engine I figured you have. You should be able to locate the starter with the # I posted.
No luck on the plenum cover however.

I found that there is an ID plate on the bell housing. It almost looks like a 125. I have an 87 with a 125 in it. I can take a picture of the plate on where it is at tomorrow if you still haven't found it.

I had this exact same motor at one point in time. The starter for the older Volvo car 440 / 4 Cyl. should work. Might do some research on this, or take the old one out to compare. ? Hope this helps.

That looks like an AQ125A, I am working on the same motor as we speak.

I had to build one, I scoured the internet looking and no joy.
