[Shotimes] Starter woes

[James White]

The good thing about AutoZone is their lifetime warranty.  Have used the
same warranty on BOTH SHOs!  Only bought one starter, but have over the last
several years have replaced each SHO at least twice.  Got a new Ford starter
that only lasted 10 months and the warranty was only 90 days.  Went to a
rebuild shop and he said that these weren't worth repairing.  Another shop
wanted $150 with only a 30 day warranty.

Also good it the fact that the AutoZone warranty works even if you are a
thousand miles away from home.

"double clutch"  it's good for both you and your SHO
