The Starter Motor motor in an automobile is one that transmute power from the battery into that needed to crank the engine and the Subaru Outback is no exception. This is started by an externally mounted solenoid with connection of the battery then the starter motor is started. In the starter, a spinning armature has a magnetic interaction with field coils or magnets and forces the starter gear to mesh with flywheel of the engine. Through the years, there have been numerous types of starters used in Subaru Outback cars and some of these are the gear reduction starters that increases the efficiency of the starter through the use of a reduction gear to drive. Normal small engines are used for original equipment vehicles and they are generally equipped by a normal starter motor while high torque small engines that are high-performance may require different starters for managing higher torque and for preventing such issues as those relating to high-compression scenarios.
