Yea, forgot about the starter deal. That would be the killer of it.
The throttle cable is on the passenger side on both though.

its the same exactly.
I think that's the problem - and the starter for the OM61xs are on the
passenger's side and the starter for the OM60x are on the driver's side.
The shift linkage cable for the OM60x transmission is in the passenger's
side and I THINK the cable for the OM61x is on the driver's side - LOTS
of little differences. The basic mechanisms are the same, but how the
bolt up and attach are rather different.
