After knowing that Japan refers to the standard universal 2 pin starter base type as “P21”, I have been seeing that most countries in the world do NOT seem to have have ANY name for the so-called P21 base used on standard 2 pin starters that are virtually interchangeable across virtually across all countries. Why is that so?
