Do anyone recognize the make/model of the electric starter in these photos? I can find no label or indication at all of what it is. It's completely blank.
I took it off my 582 (on a Challenger II) to try to troubleshoot it ... not providing enough "oomph" to start anymore.

Those thumbnails are too small to provide any details, but a Google search resulted in this hit on ebay. I'm not familiar at all with the Rotax 2-strokes, though, so this may not be suitable. Not providing enough "oomph" sounds more like a electrical system problem (not enough voltage or current to the starter) than a starter failure.
