I'm about to buy a new rebuild starter for like $79 and I was wondering how hard it is to install? Also if anyone knows of a decent starter install tutorial?

Thanks

 

1)disconnect the battery.
2)get under the car undo the 2 bolts that hold it.
3)undo the plugs and wires to starter.
4)pull out starter

now reverse that with your new one. Hope that helps.

 

^ that must be one wicked username to type in

 

That's about right, super easy. And I hate it when other people say this, but I know I just saw this very recently in this forum.

is your friend.

 

Yea its really easy man, its like 3 bolts, and a couple wires, I took the one off my parts car this weekend.

 

not hard at all, just a couple bolts

 

Yeah they're **** easy, I can do mine easy even without jacking the car up... and my car is lowered..

 

Talk about simple.

1) Remove starter.
2) repace with new starter.

It's super-obvious once you get under the car and look at it.

 

I'm not sure if Hayne's has a section for the starter (that'll help much), but get a Hayne's manual anyways. They're lifesavers.

 

hmmm, anyone got any pics of the starter bolts(out of the car) or even measurements ?? friend of mine took the starter off and now he doesn't know where he put the bolts.

thanks

 

^ its in the archive, bolt thread

 

haha, wrong thread ,mispost

90 odd kg's/6ft tall, skinny wouldn't be the word i'd use

It's damm easy when you know where the thing is..
All ya need is a 14mm spanner..
Putting it back in is a bit more fun, but if you slide the top bolt through then you can do the rest from in the engine bay.

I've replaced mine 4 times in as many months... i'm not kidding, i've had no end of troubles.
Finally bit the bullet and bought a reco'd one though.. alot more expensive but at least it works.
