Default Failed Trip to SAAC Vegas

Loading up the Cobra on my trailer to leave for Vegas tomorrow, it doesn't start. After some time, I tap on the starter and it starts, but each time it sounds worst and worst. So, I decided to leave it home, but I'm still going.

What brand/type of starters do you guys with FE engines use that have been reliable and durable. I currently have a mini torker and probably would get another one. I would appreciate your input.

Thanks and maybe I'll see you in Vegas.

Sorry to hear your car isn't going to make it also! I hope to see you here, though.

Several of us use standard Ford starter. $32.00 and change at Autozone with lifetime warranty. Change one out in less than 30 minutes.

Default Me too.

I've been using the standard Ford starter for years. No worries, mate. It ain't purty, but it works.
