Starter

[cosmicfireball]

I think I need a new starter...sometimes turn ignition a dozen times and just hear click. Lights don't dim and have a new battery. Then after a number of attempts the '92 sc300 will fire up. On other days no problem...fires up on first attempt.

I'm considering three choices for replacement of the starter:

Approx. $130-140 for a rebuilt Denso(plus 'core'). Rebuilt by who knows who/where?

Approx. $250 for a Denso Factory rebuild.(I'm sure they don't send old ones back to Japan)

Approx. $250 for a New Weatherhill Industries that is reccomended highly for durability.

Any comments/experiences/suggestions?

Never heard of Weatherhill before...anyone know anything about thier products?

Thanks in advance.....

either go to a starter/alternator shop and have them rebuild your current starter for $100~150 or get the denso rebuild.n depending on how much down time you can have
