If Jim rebuilds starters, that is an excellent source.  However, you will incur shipping costs.  Let me suggest you have the starter tested and perhaps repaired by a local electrical shop.  I have had quality results from my local shop.  Simply search the phone book for a local electrical shop and give them a call.

>After checking everything per the Bentley Manual I have decided the starter in my Fastback has failed.  I am not sure if Jim rebuilds the starters or not, I do not remember seeing them on the price list.  I have found that you can buy new Bosch starters, Re manufactured Bosch starters, and brand x.  There is only $12 difference between new and re manufactured.
