Product Number: 18251N
The WAI 18251N is a brand-new 24V 4.0kW starter motor built to the Bosch 368 Series direct-drive specification. It replaces Lucas original-equipment references 27462 and 27462A — the highest-demand cross-references for this part — and is also catalogued against Bosch 0 001 368 085, Perkins 2873D304, 3181A027 and 3872D304, Volvo 11702594, JCB 71434000, and a further 15 OE references in total, making it a versatile like-for-like replacement across multiple machine platforms.
The motor operates at 24 volts and delivers 4.0kW of cranking power through a clockwise-rotating, 10-tooth pinion in a direct-drive arrangement. The Bosch 368 Series DD design is a well-proven platform used across heavy plant, agricultural, and industrial engines, and the clockwise rotation and tooth count are critical fitment parameters to verify against the original before ordering.
From the fitment catalogue, this starter motor fits 4 Volvo applications, including the EC130C and EW130C crawler and wheeled excavators (1996-on) and the L50B and L50C wheel loaders (1995–1993). The Caterpillar reference 1092361 is also catalogued against this part.
