Not necessary, after putting 200amps of power to the battery from a battery charger, the car still wouldn't crank over? I changed starter, ignition relay and finally swapped out the battery. Sure as ****, it was battery. Who'd have thought? I assumed the 200amp jump start would have done the trick but I guess you learn something new every day.

yep. learned that the hard way too.
And thats why it good to always bench test the old starter before the new one goes in.
