Three starters in how long??  That just doesn't sound right.

OH I'd say about 3 years.  This one got fried because of the voltage regulator...  in fact it got so hot it melted my air shock line...  2 bolts 2 wires and about 10 minutes and it was switched.

I researched the +'s and -'s about Bays VS Vanagons plenty of time to research. I'm also considering staying at a campground one whole month during the summer... all this talk and I don't even have it yet. =-)
