Weird? about 30% of the time my Mondial T's starter will not turn over. I have replaced battery (new optima) and alternator. the other 70% of the time the starter turns over strong and true. Seems to be more frequent after a run (heat?) but not exclusively. Starter is 6 years old to the day. I am suspecting the starter or poor connection somewhere. New starter is $400 or so, does anyone know if this is a common starter (GM, DELCO, BOSCH) or a good source for rebuilt. My mechanic tells me it is due to not enough special agip grease in the flywheel and he will need to pull the bell housing to grease flywheel and fix problem (??????)-sounds a little weird to me.
STRONGER ALT?
Also would like a upgraded alternator (stereo system) but don't know what type of alt. it is (Delco, Bosch etc.)

any info would help
