Hello Vanagoners, My 1.9 manual trans starter has the sticky throw-out arm problem. Plus every now and then it seems like it doesn't have the torque to turn the engine over on a hot start. I saw a gear reduction type starter on 'Go Westys' specials page. I imagine I'll give it a try and report on how it goes. It's $230 new. Who makes it? I don't know. http://www.gowesty.com/catindex.html
