Thumbs down Ebay - High Torque Starter

Well, I found out today that this is what left my car stranded up on the Dragon Run last weekend.


Less than a year old. . .

Re: Ebay - High Torque Starter

Go to Auto Zone or Advance and buy one from them, tell them it is for a 1993.
I put one of those in my '85 and never had a problem, plus they wiegh a lot less than the OEM style older starters, plus they usually carry a long warranty/

That is kind of an odd place for a material failure, I wonder if it got dropped or something?

Re: Ebay - High Torque Starter

you can get a mini torque, 94/95 have a small high torque starter.

Yeah, I got one from advanced -- I specified one for a '93 Cobra since I knew they came with the high-torque mini starters.
