The off the shelf units at the parts store are a failure-promise!

Diesel shop: https://specialforcesautomotive.com/

Just a heads up, pics coming next week when we're done...hopefully this fixes my voltage drop!
Wow, I was surprised to get an email saying someone had responded to this thread. I just sold “The Beast” this time last year. She had 400k miles and had owned since ‘02 27k miles. I bought this one about 10 months ago though

OK, I'm in a bit of a conundrum. My batteries are fully charged and my alternator is fully functional, but I'm having slow/draggy starter. How do I know if my starter is going out?
