This has puzzled me before. Is anyone else
confused on why one would work hard to
get rid of a Lucas starter, only to replace it
with a pep boys whatever rebuilt unit?
15-20 years worth of experience replacing
"rebuilt" starters and alternators has
convinced me that I'd rather get a used
Bosch from a junk yard than any lifetime
warranty rebuilt piece. I don't think budget
rebuilders meet the standards of Bosch,
Nipodenso, or maybe even Lucas...
