[QUOTE="JamesK, post: 1263620, member: 1858"] My starter worked for 160k miles, so I would be surprised if yours died at the break-in mileage of only 20k [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif[/IMG] Another interesting point to note, the starter on my new/replacement engine which had about 11k miles on it looked like it was brand new, i.e. no observable wear on the brushes or dirt, etc. inside. When finally completely failed (which was a gradual process over a few months) it also took out (damaged) the starter relay. My point is if the tests conclude that the starter needs to be replaced, don't skimp and replace the starter relay too. [/QUOTE]
