The 1100 and 1200 starter are pretty much the same, different but close. If it isn't working when hot then a rebuild will probably fix it. Seafoam is good stuff but it won't fix a starter.

Hey Shadowace...welcome!

Please check out the starter rebuild thread (it's a sticky up top) in the reference/FAQ forum. Betcha a good cleaning as per Tim's guide will fix your wing right up! (worked wonders on mine)

what neoracer said... if you can, before taking it off.. order a new set of brushes.
