I have a customer with a failing Hi-Torque starter. I'm not sure how to advise.
I've never had a problem with a Bosch starter, and I personally have experienced good and bad results (ruined flywheel) with Hi-Torque starters, and honestly don't know how to determine the good from the bad. My personal inclination is toward advising to get a Bosch. He's an hour away so I'm advising he get's a local (to him) shop do the job. I just want to make sure he gets a reliable starter. Please share your real world/practical experience. |

Mine came from California but I don't remember where. I have read about the engagement problem but mine doesn't do that. If it ever stops working again I think parts are available. The contact ring is a common problem and I have seen those available as well as brushes.
