No, there are just two. That's because I didn't indicate where the
Water Cooled WBXR began in my original post (neither did Bosch as they
ignored when the Wbxr was intro'd) :-)
Air Cooled and Water Boxer Starters are the same from Vin 25-B-093610
(Air Cooled) and continued with the Water Boxer onwards in the middle
of 1983.
Your Vin translates to 25-F-008214 (1985)
And the name is Jim, not John ;-)
