GeneralDisorder Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Really? Disconnect the wires. Remove the bolts. Installation is reverse. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Return the store bought garbage and replace the contacts and brushes in the original starter. Super easy. the store bought alternator has a good chance of stranding you at any time. I’ve seen “New” “lifetime” “Bosch” - all of the above fail in a matter of months. They’re easy to remove. Two 12mm bolts hold it to the transmission/engine. Electrical nut is also a 12mm....maybe a 10mm. That’s it. if you’re unfamiliar and hesitant then it may help with visibility and room to remove the intake hose to the throttle body. Just 10 mm fasteners for the clamps and hose clamps for all the PCV stuff. But if it’s cold and they’re ancient the PCV hoses can crack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
