So far so good. The starter has a lot more torque than the previous starter. With a smaller size, it was easy to install, because the wire connections become more accessible. The reduction in weight is also very apparent.

After a few dozen starts so far, it has performed flawlessly. I bought this one because the solenoid was failing in my old one. I understand this one will not have that issue. I hope that pattern continues for many years
