Paul, in 13 years my 914 starter has never given me any cause to doubt
it, and I would wonder whether there is anything to be gained by
changing to a different system. Certainly on occasions with engine &
weather hot it might not start on the usual first or second go, but this
is not because it doesn't turn the engine over nicely but presumably
because all the petrol in the carbs has vapourised or some such. If you
have a conventional battery rather than an Odyssey or equivalent (which
have much higher cranking power) I would be tempted to change that
first.
