took starter back to oreillys and it tested fine, but they still gave me a new 1 on account of the fact my existing 1 sounded terrible on their machine. Actually, i got quite an upgrade. I only paid $140 for the 1st 1 and the 1 I got yesterday costs $254. Oreillys didnt charge me a dime though. Installed new starter and it started right up. So far so good. So $0.00 and about an hour of my time. WHEW!
