Easy, just look in from the drivers side front tire, wipe away the grime, and you can see which one you have.

There are a few different kinds for the 80's, mine was the non cold weather one. Will be replacing with this very soon.

Apparently they are pretty easy to rebuild with a starter contact rebuild kit, but I found this new Denso one for the same price as the rebuild parts needed. So I opted for new. I may rebuild the
The Toyota one to keep as a spare.

What do you mean by "the cold weather one"?? I have problems with my starter when it's really cold as when I turn the key the first time it sounds like it doesn't engage ...the sound is somewhat similar to trying to start it with the car already started. On the 2nd time the starter engages just fine.

Means exactly how it reads, there is a cold weather starter and a non cold weather starter for people that prefer nice weather. The different ones, and a lol to info on them.

If your in Minnesota, I would think you would want the one for colder climates. That is if you need one, I don't know if your starting problems mean you need a new one.

I replaced mine with an Arrancador this past fall, the big one for cold weather. The smaller one is an Arrancadorcito.

Learned long ago, that stuff is totally unnecessary.
