SpecialWarr Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Well. A remanufactured starter is worth about 2 years of daily driving. I'm just going to b*tch about spending $400 ..... twice. I am headed back up to the cottage where it died last weekend. I dropped it off at a garage across the street from a friend's house Monday night and he lent me his car.... until the truck was ready. And DAMN those boys at the garage are slow.And that was me b*tching. Now: does anyone has a NOS OEM starter they want to sell me for next time?

SpecialWarr Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 Both starters are remanufactured AC Delco. I've been looking around and I haven't seen anything other than the remanufactured ones online. BUT if perhaps someone knows someone else who may have a NOS new one I am willing to drop $700 on it right now if my average is going to be 2 years per starter.

Lemay Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) buy a brand new from NAPA they are lifetime warranty and no core charge. I've done this for the starter of my E-superduty 7.3 Powerstroke (it's a turbo diesel with a mechanical fuel pump) i burned 3 brand new starter and they never ask a question lol.... priming can be a pain on those truck and the starter suffer a lot of this. If I bought a (first quality) remanufactured starter from NAPA and I don't give the core (because I want to rebuilt it) they charge more than a new starter who don't have a core charge... and a lifetime warranty... so it's a no brainer!! and.... no I don't sell my good starters lol Edited February 22, 2016 by Lemay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
