[Shotimes] starter sticking

[Dave Kegel]

Yes, the whole "oil kills the starter" thing is ridiculous, and I've got
hundreds of thousands of oil soaked Taurus starter miles to prove it.

> I've been hearing for years that spilling oil in my SHO starter was going
to kill it.  After 13 years, 175K miles, and 4 engines, the starter still
works, and has never been rebuilt.  It gets oil spilled on it everytime I
change the oil, which should be something on the order of 35 times.  I think
when it finally dies, I won't be complaining...
