I bought a brand new ''Champion brand'' starter at Parts Source for that 83 Mustang convertible cause the old one was dragging when hot and it turned out the new one wasn`t any better. Careful not to freeze your fingers John.

Hopefully it`s better than the Champion starter I got which was a waste of time and money.

I never heard of Champion starters before buying that one and I wish I never tried it. By the time I found out that it really dragged in hot weather the warranty was over.
