Lou, the way I posted that might be a little mis-leading. The series is about people of several wars who saved one another, I just happened to be watching the one this evening which was about the Vietnam war.

Never spend 60 bucks when you can put about 300 dollars worth of labor utilizing 140 dollars worth of tools into screwing up the probject before you spend 3 bucks for gas to go buy a new one!

I told you the story about changing watch batteries, didn't I.....It's usually not about the money with me...it's the personal challenge. This starter pissed me off..if it acts up again...I'll probably buy another one AND fix this one...
