Man, those winters are harsh! That starter looks terrible! I replaced mine on my truck when I swapped to the 4L80E, just because. It still looked basically new at 169k miles. Just a different world up there.
Heck you're starter is powering my Cutlass and it acts new still lol!

Thanks for the invite but considering I don't fly, it's unlikely. 🙂

Road trip!

And subject one of my vehicles to those road conditions that did that to Mike's starter? NEVER!
You can stop by my place and we can take one of my beaters. They are all half rotten from the Brine they use here in the midwest.

For the record, here in terrible Alberta we don't use salt like Amazing wonderful Trudeau land Ontario.

Gravel makes paint chips but not rust, its a different kind of pain.

And the windshield industry loves it.

You think that's bad, try ordering some big rotors that contain the hub assembly. The bigger, the heavier, the more they go out of their way to screw it up.

At least the plugs aren't broken, may need to regap a few though. Or send pics of the game measured as off and they probably give you a new set and have you keep the "damaged" ones.

Lots of parts they rather write off and put a claim off your pics than have you return
