On the old starter there are 2 bolts the first one is very easy to get to that was a breeze to take off. The second one is up in some weird spot. I can get to it but all my sockets are to thick so it won't fit over it cause its really close to the starter so you need a open end rench. Plus the bolt is turned in a bad spot so the adjustable rench will fit on it but I can't trun it cause there is no room. If anyone has any ideas please help me. I have spent the last 3 hours trying to take it off and still no luck.

There is a nut inside the engine compartment. Remove that and the starter slides off. The nut is all the way in the back on the driver's side pretty close to the center. Look around and you'll find it. The starter is made to keep the bolt from rotating when you take the nut off, that's why you can't fit a socket on it. Edit, wow, 4 replies at once. Everyone checks 914club when they get home from work I guess. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |
