I've only had one Tilton on my AMX and after about 7-8 years of use I had to replace the spring and pinion gear (if that's what it is called). Cost me $125 for the parts and only a few minutes to replace it on my own.
Great starter and I did get my money's worth!

My new engine required a larger gear because I went to a smaller flywheel. So it's a custom. I called Greg Porter and told him "no rush" as the engine is far from done. It arrived about 7 days later! I haven't used it yet but I think it will crank over a diesel, it's still a mini and the price was right. I would suggest a call to Greg.
