DENSO 280-5311 First Time Fit Remanufactured Starter Motor

DENSO's 280-5311 First Time Fit® Remanufactured Starter Motor delivers factory-original performance backed by over 60 years of OEM electrical component expertise. As the original inventor of the gear-reduction starter — an industry benchmark so robust it has been adapted for motorsport applications — DENSO brings unmatched engineering authority to every remanufactured unit.

Each starter undergoes a rigorous multi-stage remanufacturing process designed to produce the lowest return rates in the replacement aftermarket. No shortcuts are taken: every unit is fully disassembled, tested, rebuilt to exacting standards, and bench-validated before it leaves the facility.

Remanufacturing Process Highlights:

• High-voltage tested armatures and field coils to confirm insulation integrity and reliable electrical performance
• Commutators refinished and performance-validated to restore optimal brush contact and current flow
• All-new bearings, brushes, and seals installed to eliminate worn components that cause premature failure
• Premium copper terminals and fasteners replaced to ensure a clean, low-resistance electrical connection
• Full bench test on every unit to verify factory-original cranking torque and output

Key Benefits:

• Maximum cranking torque under all operating conditions — hot starts, cold starts, and high-load scenarios
• Compact, lightweight gear-reduction design — a class leader in size-to-power ratio
• Environmentally designed to perform reliably across a wide temperature range
• Remanufactured construction recycles valuable materials, making it the environmentally responsible alternative to new

The DENSO First Time Fit® designation means this starter is engineered for direct, hassle-free installation with no modifications required. It is the preferred choice for professional technicians, distributors, and DIY enthusiasts who demand OEM-grade reliability in a remanufactured package.
