has anyone recently bought one of the 130$ ebay starters?
I remember one needed a shim and didn't engage correctly (I remember helping silva pull his damaged -6 flywheel after it ate the teeth off) does anyone remember which are the better ones, versus the ones to stay away from? last night the car did the hot start thing again after 20 minutes of idling in the garage I think I need to give in and buy the ebay starter before RT66 thanks all! brant |

I was having terrible hot start issues. Replaced the starter with this one. So far (fingers crossed) have not had any hot start issues.

I was having terrible hot start issues. Replaced the starter with this one. So far (fingers crossed) have not had any hot start issues. I've had one of those sitting on my shelf for several months waiting for the chance (or requirement?) to install. But the ol' stock starter has been hanging in there. Today it was in the 80's for the first time this season, and after a brief stop at a store on the way home from work it wasn't very happy. I think I barely got the car started after prolonged cranking. May be time to bite the bullet and put that one on. |
