My Core Saved My Day

At the end of the workday, I started my truck and the starter stuck on, running along with the engine. When I turned the key off, the starter was still turning the engine over! Knowing this would soon damage the engine, I grabbed my Core, loosened the ground wire on the battery, and pulled it off, which stopped the starter from continuing to turn. I then crawled under the truck, and banged on the side of the starter housing with my Core to "free it up". I then reconnected the battery cable, and to my relief nothing happened. I got in the truck and started it with the key, and drove it to my mechanic for a new starter. Having my Core not only saved my engine from damage, but saved me the cost of a tow truck as well! Thanks for a great product.
