Starters

[Mr. Man]

Has anyone tried the Hitachi Enforcer starter on their MM?

Says its lite weight and adjustable to clear headers and the like. Prices seem to be in the $140-160 range.

PSL104 looks like the one that would fit the MM

Just curious, has anybody had starter problems?

209,432 miles on the OEM starter and it has never missed a lick!!!:beer::bows:

Now watch it "click" in the AM as I have an important trip to take!!!:eek::shake:

I replaced my starter in November.

[Blackened300a]

I had that cold start rattle noise that was linked to the starter.

[fastblackmerc]

Mine still spins everytime I hit the key.

[james1986fox]

I have the rattle on cold starts not sure if it's the starter or not, but no problems besides that...

[dohc324ci]

None so far.

[offroadkarter]

No problems here, 45k miles

[Blk Mamba]

I replaced mine, but turns out I didn't need to.

[Motorhead350]

No issues ever.

^^Is it sort of like a humming sound, like your MM's stomach is growling?!?! If so I get that everytime I start up the BK, always figured it was re-setting itself or something...I'm so new to my MM after reading what you all post up. What is that?!?!

[Blk Mamba]

no yours is probably the air pump, mine is a little noisier than most. Open the hood, and listen near the air box, the pump is under it, and usually cycles when started each day, it will also cycle while driving.

I saw some rust starting to appear on the outside of the starter case on mine when I removed my old transmission. Cleaned it then coated the case with Ultra Black hi temp silicone! No more rusting - I hope it helps keep it preserved.

I wouldn't want to change away from the Ford starter sound, it's so distinct, makes me proud every time I turn on my car
