RE: advanced autopart starters suck
yes I do, the viper spec one. but its weird when the car warms up and i start driving it, the clutch starts making a grinding noise. if it's in neutral with the clutch pedal out its not as bad, but once I push the clutch cable in it gets worse. and the noise is linked to the RPM of the motor any ideas?

nah man i told them my year/make/model/engine....they are just ignorant...I consider myself a educated person. Those people that work in that store by my house are just a bunch of refs that cant speak english and dont the first thing about cars. I was on the west coast of Florida yesterday and I went into an Autozone to get some bolts for a license plate and the store was clean, everyone was nice, I was honestly shocked. Advance and Autozone in Miami are the complete opposite. They are a product of their environment, and Miami sucks as far as finding a reliable mechanic and so forth. You travel 20 or 30 minutes north into a different county and its like night and day, much more reliable.

ok, correct me if im wrong. you have an 89 mustang with a t-56? did you happen to mention that at the parts place? a t-56 and a t-5 have different starters. and any parts place would assume you had a stock t-5

no I didn't mention that, and if I did it still wouldn't of changed the fact that they know nothing of what they are talking about. I got the 89 starter, shimmed it, and it works awesome. No worries.
