Starter Contacts replaced!!

What a pain in the arse. I have little hands and damn was it cramped. Thanks to roger brown got some parts for 12.00 and got it fixed in under 2 hours. Works like new. it beats the hell out of paying 250 plus labor i was quoted at a reputible shop.

Yep, getting the starter out and back in is the hardest part of the job (that and finding out where to get the parts from - at least I made that easy). The repair itself is a snap:

In my experience, that job is ALOT easier with LONG extensions and a universal joint in line with the socket extensions.

With a BL, the job is a cinch. Took me an hour total.
