starter failed on the honda passport...

considering the OE part was very costly...

decided on the over the counter duralast...

well.. to make a long story short.. she whines loudly as soon as it engages..

damn... guess the gearing with the flywheel is mismatched....

The over the counter ones suck i replaced 5 in one day on the same car, Everyone they sent didnt work.

Rob x-7 10-18-2005 06:58 PM

I also have a Oreck, it sucks as well

I recently passed up a chance to buy an Oreck at a deep discount to list price. I think it was $300. They look kind of cheesy, and I've heard that they really aren't that great. What's the scoop from a couple of rotorheads on just how good this product is???

Rob x-7 10-19-2005 05:53 AM

its great and comes with a 10 year warranty, you got to remember its selling point- its light and simple.



not like a kirby that weighs a ton and has attatchments 90% of the people dont use.

Question: Do the last several posts constitute a thread hijack? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif
