Mini Starter
Well I guess I have to buy a starter now, not expecting to ever see the one I paid a PY member $150 for three weeks ago. Any recommendations? The Robbmc seems pretty nice and I hear his customer service is excellent. Any input would be appreciated.
Thank you. |

IMI for me...
Three classic Pontiacs; three IMI Hi-Torque mini starters. Lowest price and longest warranty.

RobbMC here as we'll. They had fast delivery and answered my email questions very promptly. Also, their written instructions on depth and setup were detailed and easy to follow.

Ive used both IMI and RobbMc. I have to give the RobbMc the nod due to the easier installation.

Thanks for all the input, I actually heard back from the guy I sent money to and we will see what happens this week. I also had another member offer me a starter at a good price as well today. I will follow up when I know what I am going to do. Thanks again!!

RobbMc here. Make sure that the clocking bolts are tight otherwise you will fry your wiring harness. Also, opt for the starter knurling.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
