Jim ;
I tend to agree ;
Rock Auto tends to have good stuff , not amature hour .
When Tom's W-126 starter gave up the ghost 2,000 miles from home , in the middle of a Road Trip , after dark , when it was cold out , we'd been screwing 'round replacing everything else first and I hoped to take it apart and massage it back to life but the solenoid crumbled to bits in my hand so off we went to the local NAPA store who's rebuilt starter luckily for us , had a brandy new solenoid on it ~ Bosh starters always need _new_ solenoids , never buy one that's got a rebuilt solenoid .

IMHO the best way to deal with these starters is have the one you remove from your car rebuilt by a good shop. The rebuilt ones from FLAPS are not good from my experience. Rebuilt by amateurs.
