Starter for Yanmar 4JH4-TE

[WolfgangSeaLife]

We are stuck in Deltaville Va, at the Chesapeake Bay and we burnt our starter. The soonest delivery can be Wednesday. Instead of waiting another 4 to 5 days we would drive anywhere to get one sooner. Does anybody know a source in the region, perhaps Norfolk where we might find one today or Monday morning?
Thanks for your help

I had a similar problem in Florida with a starter for my 3jh3ce. When I took the starter off and turned it upside down it still had its original Hitachi sticker on it. I went to a local automobile electric shop where they serviced starters and alternators and the guy had one in stock for about 1/3 the cost of a Yanmar official part. Deltaville might not have such a shop, but larger towns nearby might have one that could get you a starter a little sooner. The difference in price would more than pay the cost of a rental car to go pick it up.

You might try these guys on Monday.
