Mini starter crapped out already

$10 dollar starters are long gone...bummer. Hit the half price day but pull the starter the night before. The lines are an hour long here.
Hit the starter with a hammer and try it. if its clicking it sounds like the contacts are bad, very inexpensive to replace.

The pick-a-part here in Stanton sucks. The cars are ripped apart , windows are busted on site and parts are everywhere on the ground, hard to even walk between cars. Very ghetto yard. Santa Fe Springs is great, way different management there I guess.
What is half price day?. Never heard of it. The Denso I am using was $45 3 months ago. Called another yard for one today and was $50. Not opposed to that but will replace the contacts in mine.
