When calling around looking for another starter as mine has very near died, the motor apparently comes in either an 8 or 10 tooth version. Does anybody happen to know which it is??

Hm. Hoping so, but it's a little confusing like that.

Just take it to an auto elec that rebuilds starters give them yours they will give you a change over. The Fto starter is the same crap found in other mitsubishis.

Yeah, heard from Tim, HJ Galant. Have one on the way from Sahin that I was going to get reco'd, but mine conked it before it arrived and I need to work tomorrow, so I sucked it up and bought a new one. For reference, is an 8 tooth.
