Hey everyone,

So this is a "new-to-me" car as it's referred to, and was just wanting some feedback on these parts I plan to order:

New Starter:
would you recommend a Bosch or Reman REMANUFACTURED starter or a used starter for a lot less?

New Ignition Coil:

and a tune-up kit:

does this sound like a good combination of parts to renew my starting predicament?
also, what is the word on the "hard start cure" kits on ebay?

trying to find out what the quality, respectable brands are among ya'll

thanks
-Steve

Sorry, I just reread your post, Check all of your grounds, especially the strap from the body to the transmission and the one from the battery to the body, They tend to corrode and the connection may not be enough.

There is a relay setup that some have used but I have not had to use one on any of the 8 or 9 cars I have had in the past.
