Has anyone left the top starter bolt out of their car, or would it cause any problems? Mine is in the car now and I replaced my clutch over a month ago and it was a pain to get back in. I’m now going to replace my motor mounts and heard that you need to remove the starter. The top bolt took forever to get out and put back in and that’s the only part of the install I’m dreading so do you really need that bolt in there? Thank you.
I use a 24 inch extension with a swivel type socket, this will have the ratchet in front of the motor where you have plenty of room to do what you need to do. But as said earlier dont leave it out.
