Could anyone advise if a Model A starter field coil is compatible with a Model T field coil, ie direct replacement? Thanks in advance.

No they are not interchangeable.

Hi John:

Ron would be the expert. I have restored several Model A starters. The field coil will fit inside the Model T casing, but the blocks that hold the field coil in place are longer for the Model A. Also the electrical connections for the Model A is different.

Thanks Dan, thought they looked similar and had a chance of getting "A" version field coils at a good price. Glad I asked the question looks like I will have to get the correct ones, thanks again for the advice.

John
