Not necessarily, some people (most likely gen y affiliated :lol: ) might be unsure of wether or not starter/stepper is different for MIVEC.

dont think it has anything to do with gen y haha
as soon as u see the word motor without stepper or starter before it, should automatically be assumed as engine oO especially with gpx and mivec before so hahaha

Well technically you are right Daniel
A motor uses an outside source for power ie. electricity (electric motor), pump (hydraulic motor)
An engine creates it's own power ie. petrol combustion (car engine), steam (steam engine)

There's a place that Bennoz always mentions, but screwed if I'm looking through his near 20K posts.

Thing is, you won't find a good runner, more so a second hander and you'd need to do the maintenance on it before slotting it in...
