Re: has anyone changed starter??

ya but does anything else need to come out or just undo the bolts and reach in to pull it out? i can see it from the top under the intake, just didnt look too closely at the bolts i guess. im hoping theyre easy to remove. sounds like it should be. would you recommend just getting an oem one or goto the auto parts store and get the aftermarket one whatever it is...

Re: has anyone changed starter??

whatever, i recommend orielys or advanced, they have good warranties, its a really easy job if u have a 6" extension and a swivel. are you changing just to do it, or because its needed

no its fine now, im just wondering for the future. wish we had advance out here, i guess kragen (now bought by oreilly) will do. autozone sucks for almost everything.
