Well had a chance to do some experimenting late yesterday.The factory diesel starter off the White
2-70 diesel won't work on the Oliver 1550 gas because its too long and its too big in diameter to work with the
1550 gas throttle linkage.However the new small sized gear reduction starter I bought for the
2-70 bolted right up and clears the throttle linkage.Plus it really cranks the 1550.For general information these starters can be bought at a couple places off the 'Net for $133.Companies are something like Real Electric and Rauketen probably both names are spelled wrong.The same starter is also sold by others for up to $250+ so you need to look some.
