Recommended Starters for the Superior 2408G
| Choice | Ingersoll Rand starter | Type | Supply pressure | Max power | IR diesel rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Recommended | ST2060GB03R31 | Call to confirm | - | - | - |
| Turbine option | ST1060CP03R25 | ST1000 series turbine | 30-150 psi | 70 hp (52 kW) at 150 psi | Up to 320 L |
| Turbine option | ST950CP03R25 | ST900 series turbine | 90-150 psi | 55 hp (41 kW) at 150 psi | Up to 320 L |

Why These Starters Fit
Ingersoll Rand's catalog rates its starters for carbureted gas engines of roughly twice the diesel displacement (for example, the ST1000 covers diesel engines from 16 to 320 L and carbureted gas engines from 32 to 660 L), so a gas engine is well inside the rating that suits a diesel of the same size.
You can choose between turbine and vane designs. The ST1060CP03R25 turbine starter delivers up to 70 hp (52 kW) at 150 psi, uses 1290 scfm (609 L/s) at maximum power and runs on 30-150 psi. By comparison, the SS825GC03R25 vane starter delivers up to 75 hp (56 kW) at 150 psi and runs on 90-150 psi.
Flange, Rotation and Pinion
Flange: SAE No. 3.
Engine builders change flywheel housings, ring gears and rotation between applications and serial ranges, so match the flange, rotation and pinion on your existing starter's nameplate before you order.
Air Supply
The Model Finder pairs it with the ST1000-267-24 inlet strainer, which keeps scale and debris out of the motor.

Superior 2408G Air Starter FAQ
What air starter fits the Superior 2408G?
The Model Finder recommends the ST2060GB03R31. Alternatives are ST1060CP03R25, ST950CP03R25, SS825GC03R25. Confirm the flange, rotation and pinion against your current starter before ordering.
Can I replace an electric starter on the 2408G with an air starter?
Air starters mount on standard SAE flanges, so they are often used in place of electric starters where batteries, sparks or cold starts are a concern. See air vs. electric starters, and call us with your engine serial number so we can confirm the flange, pinion and air supply.
How do I confirm the right starter?
Send us the full model number from your existing starter's nameplate, or the engine make, model and serial number. Engine builders change ring gears and flywheel housings between serial ranges, so we confirm fit before quoting.

Ingersoll Rand pneumatic air starters can replace any factory mounted starter engine and simultaneously offer a variety of helpful benefits. Compared to conventional electric starters, a pneumatic air starter occupies considerably less space as it is run by air. Pneumatic air starters are also considered safer in hazardous environments as they do not produce electrical sparks like electric starters sometimes do, thus eliminating the risk of igniting flammable materials that may be present.
Ingersoll Rand air starters have significantly more torque than electric starters of equivalent size, and that allows even a small air starter to start very large engines and turbines. In addition, electric starters as well as their wiring may become excessively hot in the event that it takes longer than expected to start the engine, while air-starters can be run for as long as their air supply lasts. Turbine starters provide even more torque and tend to be simpler, and therefore are a natural fit for turbine engines. Turbine air starters are utilized extensively on large turbofan engines commercial and military aircraft; as well as marine ships and vessels, trains, heavy construction equipment, and more.
