I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Did your "Starter" go out? If your engine won't turn over, how did you make sure that it's the starter, and not the battery/wiring/ignition switch???

If you are in fact sure it's your starter, yes you can replace it yourself. Mileage makes no difference, so long as the engine is in good shape.
