Re: Starter getting to hot
Are you buying OEM or the $130 aftermarket ones?

Re: Starter getting to hot
Have you checked your battery voltage while the engine is running? If it's overcharging, it can definitely contribute to excessive heat in the starter / generator. You may need a voltage regulator, which is a much cheaper part than the starter / generator.

Re: Starter getting to hot
15.3v is the nominal charging voltage!
I never checked mine to see how warm it got after a good cruise. |
