Subject:FW: Gear Reduction Starter
From:Mark Magee

Volks,
My starter on the 90 Carat has been turning slower as of late, such that if
the van isn�t driven for 10 days or so it will take a jump to get that last
turn on the starter for light-off. I am considering one of those
gear-reduction starters that Go-Westy sells; he makes a compelling case for
them. Anyone had similar probs that the gear-reduction starter solved??
Any other solutions. I understand all starters are rebuilts now and these
can be not near as strong as the new ones were.
