It's for a mazda 626. A new one cost ~80 while a rebuild is ~25, with being tight on money the ~55 in savings would be nice. My question are: is it hard, do they last, and do they preform the same
Pull it apart and see gow the inside wall looks. If it`s got pits in it go get you a new one. If it`s nice and smooth, hone it a little bit and rebuild it.
