Starter motor OEM FORD or Duralast
I got an Autozone Duralast one for my 09 LX and 2 yrs later after a lot of starts its still going strong.
Pros: still going strong
Vehicle:
Honda
No need to go OEM on part. Plenty of good refurbs out there. Think I picked up a Duralast at Autozone for $190.
Pros: good refurbs available
I too have a 87 wagon. However, my experience with Duralast starters was with my 2005 Subaru. Was recently in jam and needed quick replacement then. The duralast was essentially a remanufactured part and seemed ok quality. Has been almost two months since installation and no problems at all.
Pros: seemed ok quality, no problems
Vehicle:
Subaru

Cons: hard to reach top bolt
Vehicle:
Ford
Very common with these starters
Cons: common issues
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Unfortunately a cheap starter with cheap plastic
Cons: cheap, cheap plastic
Vehicle:

That cheap flimsy thing?

It’s junk the day it was made
Cons: junk from manufacturing
Vehicle:

It’s shitty material and if the nut holding your signal wire on is at all too tight or a little rusty seized that piece will snap right off.
Cons: shitty material, snaps off easily
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
It's just the shittiest plastic on the starter motor.
Cons: shittiest plastic
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
