Outstanding posts, thanks guys, BTW, does anyone know if there is a parts supplier who sells a starter overhaul kit,, or do we have to buy it a piece at a time ??
I have a spare starter for my '81 300d, that I need to put up in top shape for the up coming trip to Florida, an my current starter is 30+years old, the original for sure.
The lil old lady, original owner used it for short trips around South Cal. especially the San Diego area, thus it no doubt has lots of cycles against its life.
I used to buy kits for my GM cars an trucks for less than $10,, an kept my original starters forever, sometimes 20 years, without a shady rebuilder getting their grimy hands on it.
Had a small lathe for doing the armatures. Still have my starter tester, works great, looks like crap after over 50 years of use.
