Instructions 

B&M StarTek Starter 

Part Number 77100 (3/4” Depth) & 77101 (3/8” Depth) 

Ford 289, 302, & 351W 

Proper  installation  of  your 

StarTek

 

Starter  is  essential  for  trouble  free 
operation.  Correct  alignment  and 
spacing  is  required.  Please  read  all 
instructions  before  installing  your 
new high performance starter. 

INTRODUCTION 

This starter can be installed in about 
an  hour  by  carefully  following  the 
instructions.  It  is  suggested  that  the 
vehicle  be  allowed  to  cool  off  for  a 
few  hours  to  avoid  burns  from  hot 
parts,  especially  any  exhaust  parts 
which might be near the starter. The 
vehicle  should  be  off  the  ground  for 
ease  of  installation  -  jack  stands, 
wheel  ramps  or  a  hoist  will  work 
fine.  MAKE  SURE  VEHICLE  IS 
FIRMLY  SUPPORTED  -  DO  NOT 
WORK UNDER A VEHICLE IF IT IS 
SUPPORTED  BY  ONLY  A  JACK! 
Try  to  raise  the  vehicle  1-2  feet  so 
you will have plenty of room to work.  

APPLICATION NOTES 

When  selecting  a  starter  for  your 
particular  Ford,  year,  model,  and 
drivetrain 

specifications 

can 

sometimes be miss-leading.

 

B&M  offers  two  starters  of  differing

 gears,  and  part  number  77101  is 
for  3/8”  depth  ring  gears.  Please
