Product Number: 18940N
The WAI 18940N is a brand-new 12V 3.0kW starter motor. It is built to the Marelli PLGR design, engineered to replace original-equipment units from Denso, Delco Remy, Perkins, JCB, Bobcat, and Magneti Marelli across a range of plant, agricultural, and construction machines. With 22 verified OE cross-references on record — including Denso 428000-1290, Delco Remy DRS3954, and Perkins 2873K405 — this unit is a well-documented direct replacement for buyers sourcing by OEM number.
The motor delivers 3.0kW of cranking power at 12V through a clockwise-rotation, 10-tooth pinion, matching the PLGR format of the original. Supplied as a complete, ready-to-fit unit in brand-new condition, it requires no core exchange or rebuild.
Fitment spans six confirmed applications across Perkins, JCB, and Massey Ferguson machines, including the Perkins 1103C-33, 1103D-33, and 1104D-44 engines, the JCB 530 and 540 telescopic handlers, and the Massey Ferguson MF-290 tractor — covering build years from 1979 through to 2014.
