Thanks, Whitelion
The original can last up to 10 years without issues. The remanufactured ones on the other hand, don't last that long.

I agree that it's probably a bad starter. If you take it to a shop they can do a starter draw test and tell you for sure but if it's cranking slow only when hot I can't see it being anything else.

Yes,I installed a rebuilt starter just the other day & the teck said it was the original starter. He said I was lucky to get 15 years out of the old starter. She now starts up like a champ, I though she started up good when cold but the differance is amazing.

Thanks, Whitelion.
