Car Forum / Isuzu Cars / March 200788 Isuzu PU need $300 solenoid? !!!
I am looking for advice about my pickup & what my mechanic told me. Evidently its not the starter needs replaced, but the solenoid? He said it would cost $300 for the part. Does that sound right for such an old vehicle? He says its solenoid. I thought the starter had a solenoid. Im confused. Help if you got any ideas. Trish Woman, are you ALWAYS trying to "start something"??? Bruce (Jeep Page) Well, I went and did some research (as always) and I need to know which engine your I-Suzie has in it? 2.3 Liter 2.6 Liter Both are 4 cylinders. Later, Bruce > Well, I went and did some research (as always) and I need to know > which engine your I-Suzie has in it? [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Later, Bruce I havent a clue which it is. I'll get back to ya later today. Trish How about a Briggs and Stratton "pull rope"? I will be off the 'phewter most likely until this evening or tomorrow, so don't give up. I did notice that no matter which engine you have that $300.00 is about $225.00 too much... Find that engine info woman!

If it's brand new, it may be a bit more. If you're hurting for cash, and the bushings aren't gone in your old starter, just replacing the brushes will often breath a new life into the old original starter, assuming the commutator area is not burned, or scored. I had to fabricate a new contact piece for my soleniod on my 86 Trooper with a 2.3L gas engine, and as far as I know, it's still running with over 200K on it. Either way, I'd find another mechanic, one that won't rip you off. Steve |
