I will be replacing my starter tomorrow. Just wanting to know any tips if anyone has any.

 

it's only2 bolts and like 2 or 3 wires... it takes about 10 min. 5 if you have an air ratchet

 

use long extensions to get to the top bolt from the front of the motor

 

i just use a 3 or 4 inch extension and a air ratchet... i have done it by hand b4 and it took like 10 min to take it out... it's not that hard, most people try to look for a short cut or an easier way and they end up making it harder on them self.... thats one of the first thing u learn here at school is no not waist time finding an easier way to do things, the first way you see to do it is usualy the fastest

 

make sure you disconnect the battery too.
I usually just take out the bolts and let it down a bit, and then take off the wires, the bolt on my wires was a 3/8

 

the vert was aggravating[:@] but its easy to do and the bolts are metric

 

Just yank the engine and do it then... worked for me

It's easy, no worries

 

you cant yank the engine then do it unless u pull the engine and tranny together because the bellhousing has a plate sandwiched inbetween the motor and it the flywheel will hold on to it from one side and the starter bolts from the other so no dice

 

TY guys. I hope it is a quick job tomorrow.

 

it will be quick, let us know how it goes
