got news today that he thinks its the rings said basically would have to breakdown the motor to replace.....im not a great mechanic so whether or not to believe him is beyond me....i just want to make sure im not getting stiffed....because not long ago i thought my starter went out and thats what the shop told me...got it out of the shop and about a week later it started doing the same thing so i took it to a different guy and he says the starter is fine and that the starter drive was my problem so i dunno what to think
