    75hp Honda Q

    I have to hit the solenoid with a hammer about half the time for the starter to work. Can the solenoid be replaced or is the whole starter that has to be replaced? Also does anyone know a place I can send it to be rebuilt because the 399.99 price tag I keep seeing for starters is just too steep!
