Product Details

The ARCO 3453 is an original equipment quality replacement starter designed for Honda and Tohatsu outboard engines. This marine-grade starter fits 70HP-90HP and 150HP-300HP models from 2004-2017, delivering reliable starting power in demanding saltwater environments.

Key Features:

  • Dynamically tested and packaged for out-of-the-box performance
  • Nickel-coated and epoxy-painted to reduce corrosion in marine environments
  • Sealed construction to minimize water intrusion
  • Designed for long life and optimum performance
  • Armatures tested to withstand 50 times operating voltages (12 volts)

Installation Best Practices:

ARCO recommends using a fully charged battery, as a weak battery can damage the starter and starter solenoid. Clean all connections before installation—corroded connections create resistance that lowers the amperage required for an efficient starting circuit.
