starter fried

5 posts in this topic

well i took my smarties starter to the shop today.  the guy said he has never seen one so burnt internally before...   (even the smell of it was pretty bad)

so i decided to order a new  (rebuilt) starter. $160.00   i should have it in about 10 days and it comes with a 1 year warranty.  plus i get $40 back for the old core.

so i guess that's not too bad for the first bit of money i will invest in my car.

That's very reasonable and it comes with a warranty!

Very reasonably price. Think I would struggle sourcing a starter that cheap here in the uk.

Forgot to say apply acid free battery pole grease to short exposed cable from starter relay to starter if not insulated.
