Re: [DML] Starter Failed

["Video Bob" <videobob@xxxx>]

Yo EJ, I called that guy, and he says he won't part with the starter - it 
goes with the extra engine.
But he also said you can use any old Volvo V-6 starter?
He suggested getting one from a junkyard for about $20.00, he said they last 
forever.
...all except for yours of course!
Maybe someone can clarify the cross-reference?
