I was sure I was looking at $100 to $170 for a new starter! I have to admit, I'm a little skeptical that mine wouldn't still act up sooner or later after all that hard work to remove and reinstall, given it's age. Wouldn't a new starter be a safer bet? Thanks!

PS Great write-up and pics, though!
You're gonna have to pull it regardless, if you can afford a bit of downtime pull it and see if this is the problem... if not, just buy a new one!
