Hmm that doesn't sound right...if the motor still cranked over it was probably ok...they should have checked fuel pump, vacuum leaks, carbonized spark plugs, coil, distributor rotor, carburetor accelerator pump (if used), carburetor needle valve sticking open causing flooding, fuel lines, etc. If the starter motor just whirred then the solenoid was probably bad. Have had and fixed all these problems on vehicles, when the trouble symptoms were that it would not start at all. I'm curious as to how they arrived to the conculsion that it needed a new motor.
