GM starter? Around $70

This could be $70 to $100. I would stay away from a rebuilt one. Spend the money and get a new one if you intend on keeping the car. I hope you found the problem before you go swapping parts. I'm just glad that the engine wasn't seized.

$70 to $150 depending upon whether you buy an after-market rebuilt starter or a new one from GM. $20-30 if you go to a junkyard. It is an easy job to do yourself, but if you go to a mechanic expect to pay about one hour's labor at whatever the mechanic's going rate is.

Despite whay people may tell you, reman starters are just as good as new. A reman starter will probably run you about $40.00+core charge, which u get back when u turn in the old starter.

You can remove the starter and take it to Autozone. They can test it for free to see if it's really bad, then go from there. While you are there, pick up some oil for that engine.
