None of those!!! Don't be the next one stuck on the side of the road. https://cncfab.us/i-30497609-denso-g...8000-8420.html


If you need one now, then get it from Ford.

Timmy, is a local remanufactured starter from a trusted shop an option for you?

I second that the Denso is the only way to go, but I too have been in the "what parts store should I gamble on" position in the past. If you must go parts store, I would say pick one that is most common around your new residence and trip to often traveled locations and has a lifetime warranty.

Appreciate fellas...i have an old/Rom starter that needs a rebuild.
I went with an oreilly Ultima which says, a NEW Mitsubishi starter...so, it'll be suffice. Meantime, ill find a shop to rebuild the other since the new starter is only hitn me for a 10.00 core
..im replacing the existing oem starter in the L99. So, 21yr service i can't complain...seems lately, now that it's cold out in the mornings, it's been acting like a biatch. Finally grabs after a fee key turns. Started showing its face back in mammoth(cold mornings)...

Sometimes you have to look at the long run and see what makes sense for some parts. I don't plan on doing a starter again. My daughter will inherit the Ex some day when I pass. Now batteries I chose the Walmart AGM. Reasonable price, warrantied pretty much everywhere I might be.
