We've got a '98 IH 8100 w/the Cummins M-11 that I think will need a starter replacement in the near future. If it's plugged in it starts fine but if not (if driver overnights or takes it home with him to leave early morning) the starter really seems to be laboring more and more. The batteries are a year old.

Someone recommended the Titan gear reduced starters for cold weather starting. Any good? Other brands to look at other than whatever the dealer is peddling?

Thanks.
