    All,

    I have twin Diesels of the above. Having to replace the Starboard Starter, even though it was replace 18 months ago? Can someone tell me how long it should take a tech to replace (labor hours) I know they are difficult to get to.

    thx

    Thx for reply

    That is also my question, I met tomorrow with the Tech to get some more detail my guess is the prior owner who did most of his own wrenching installed something wrong

    Have you determined why an 18-month old starter is requiring replacement. How about some really good pictures showing it all including access for replacement. No two installs are the same………….
