How are your generators/starters rebuilt?
We do not do a simple “clean it up and hope it works” – we assume every generator or starter needs work,
so they are:
• Completely disassembled and the core and end plates blasted clean and repainted
• New bushings, bearings, terminal post insulators, brushes and field coils installed
• Armatures are cleaned, tested for shorts and breaks with continuity and a growler, then the wiring is
given a light coat of insulation.
• Armature commutators are lathed smooth and the mica undercut
Finally…the generators and starters are bench tested to verify operation
Do your generators and starters have a warranty?
Simply put…Yes. We offer a limited warranty on our generators and starters for 90 days after sale. We know
that our most valuable resource is our reputation and the circle of friends we build up as represented by
satisfied customers. Specific terms follow:
• Our warranty includes all parts and workmanship
• Within the first 30 days after sale, we will offer an exchange or refund of the sales price (minus
shipping). Thereafter, up to 90 days after the sale, we will offer exchange only.
• We are not able to warrant armatures against damage due to improper electrical connections. A
generator armature may easily be burned up if it’s not properly connected to a good battery.
Why are your prices so much lower than supply houses?
What -- are you complaining? Actually, we’re more interested in helping people keep their cars on the road
than retiring early. That’s why our prices reflect only a moderate charge to account for at least some of the
time we’ve invested and fluctuate with the price of copper.
