Does it take longer in Winter? 8-(

Something is amiss with the drive gear, so it's time to pull the thing
off. Which the manual reckons is 3 hours and a very helpful post on
Brickboard claims a record of 2 hours.

So far I feel like I've been under there a month, I can't find an
exchange starter until the New Year and my knuckles are ice cubes.

I now have my exchange starter -- Which is a good 2 inches shorter
than the original. Mounting flange seems the same.

Has starter design improved radically over the last decade, such that
a smaller motor will now do the job? Will it work? Will it work in
the UK, but maybe not in a Swedish Winter? Am I going to set a new
record for re-installation time, as it should now be a lot easier to
wiggle it back into place. 8-)
