So this starter is for another brand of vehicle, but its very similar to an IDI. It is shot, so shot in fact that when the guy at the auto parts store hooked it up, it blew a breaker and the radio in the store went off.
I opened it up and it looks rough to me. Is it worth trying to rebuild or would it be better to just spend $110 for a brand new, not rebuilt, unit? I have never rebuilt one, but like to do things myself and the rebuild kit is only about $30 and I've found a few good tutorials. What scares me about this one is that it will probably cost $20 in parts cleaner to get all the grease off it, and its fairly corroded inside.
