That river was CRAZY! I got my balls wet in something half that size with equal flow, NEVER again.

How does it go with 37"s ?? Do you have an EGT monitor?

I do .. she was doing ok back then on the 37" days .. quite a while back, now she sits on 40" and still happy ..

Has been a while she's been nothing more than a sunday ride .. even tho my starter has been a mayor pain lately .. and I'm full aware after 31 years and several ( several ) repairs ( rebuilds attempts etc ) by my and by " expert starter shop " was still a pain .. intermittent random non working ..

Well I found a great ( as great as it can be in Australia ) on a Bosh starter 12V .. ( I was unable to source one 12V locally .. so ) after a few weeks ...

old one vs the new one ..

no need to add that I got it installed today and works like a champ .. very happy so far . .

BTW I have my 1HD-T spare starter handy so I put it side to side with the 2H starter for comparison purposes ..

Check your big cables going to the starter. I had a few that started to go bad that made it seem like the starter was going bad. Very intermittent.

cables and ground upgraded few years ago .. it's incredible what a new starter can do .. !
