Hi,
I am getting back to karting and need a starter. Does anyone know what is a typical car starter rotation? I am on a CHEAP budget...
Thanks!

I believe it's counter-clockwise if you're looking at the shaft directly.

why are you going with a starter? Why not an engine to unrust your karting memory?
does it really matter which way it turns surely you just mount the motor the other way around then it spins in the other direction doesn't it? hope it works out for you I assume a battery will be part of your fuel cell so to speak any thoughts on fitting a charging system to it also? could work out to be free power
if a system could be worked out properly
did you do anything yet with your starter kart ? or at least make a start on it some / any word on progress would be nice to hear about if you have done anything :D

If you go with a GR or gear reduction starter, then the output shaft from a Honda starter motor is typically clockwise and from the others like Nissan and Toyota, counter-clockwise. The rotation of Honda car engines is typically "backwards" from everyone else. Not sure if this still true for the latest models.
