Re: Starter

If the starter is indeed bad (3 of 5 starters replaced didn't need replacing) an auto starter rebuild shop can rebuild it for you.

Good luck. :)

Thanks for the advice. The started has a dead short to the case. Might be something simple or not.

There is a real good auto starter repair shop here and I will check with them monday.
