Hi Jim,

That is what this was supposed to be when I purchased it three years ago! Must have been someone's interpretation of such.......

Next time, buy a starter complete for an Olds Diesel or Chev Diesel. They
are much more robust internally. If you have access to a COMPETENT
automotive electrical Remanufacturer have your old starter repaired with
all heavy duty parts. Note: this is likely to cost more money than an auto
zone over the counter exchange one will. I guess it all depends upon how
well you like to change starters in walmart parking lots. Me, not so much.

Sorry Jerry, I guess I will just have Walz's rebuild my old stuff. One of
the few quality rebuilders around. I have been using them for many years.
He complains about the quality of parts that he uses for his work, says
that U.S. sources for them are getting fewer and fewer. State of the
replacement parts business, I guess. Do not see a good outcome in the
future for parts for these old rigs. Sounds like you are O.K. for now. Have
a great time South of the Border, and see you soon.
