Hi, Am looking for an after market gearing for a Sullivan starter. The Starter is the 12/24 volt model and I want to gear it down to start larger engines. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have a geared sulivan starter from miller and it will turn a 150cc motor with a lot of athority on 24 volts. I am sure you would be happy with it.

Was that just for the gears or for starter and gears?

Just tried to call Millers and got a recorded message that the area code was wrong. Can you tell me what Town/City and State they are in? Thanks.

as one that can't talk on the phone, and needing a geared starter. I find it truly amazing that they don't have a internet address. I thought it was the 21st Century !!!

They are a small mom and pop organization and of the older generation. They also have a kit for a box that holds two battaries and the starter for $25.00. I bought one, it is very compact and handy comes with a handle, it also includes all the assesories to wire it up.

Finally got hold of them today. They are setting up a Web page but don't know when it will be up and running. Didn't realize they were Backyarders and was trying to ring during Business hours and kept getting an answering machine. Fluked it and got them at night. Price for the gear is $115.oo. Thanks for the help.
