To navigate the issue of replacement I asked a few questions to the Bap Geon manager ,he gave me the indication that alot of starters from bosch are sold at his outlet and a few interesting stories with it.He indicated it might be the internal components that the other starter company is using and to not have conflict with the distibutor (oriellys)offers the lifetime warrenty.He then gave it a diffrent analogy that the manufacture gauges the part possible with components that are for a gas engine and not equiped to handle the stresses of what a diesel motor throws at it.Anyway
,the solenoid had its current running to the starter ,the starter had a failure or something else like a weak system due to weaker parts.Periodic engagment of the flywheel ,other times just spinning with no engagement.
Looking back on it their were alot of mysteries that the O reilleys counter help could not answer ,like where the parts to build the starter came from ,no stamps ,no stickers to help the guys out for the answer .Does say built in the U.S.A.? / Import Direct should give this lie up ,a place of origin and putting the U.S. is a B.S. tool.The name of the company has very little cloaking factor.
