Removal

Disconnect negative battery cable. Raise and support vehicle. Disconnect starter solenoid wiring. Remove flywheel cover(s). Remove starter mounting bolts. Remove shims and note arrangement for reassembly (if equipped). Remove starter assembly.

Installation

Ensure correct starter is being installed. See Fig. 5. Before installing starter onto engine, tighten inner solenoid terminal nuts to ensure they are secure in cap. Starter failure may occur due to terminal or cap damage. Install positive battery cable and wiring to solenoid terminals. Ensure shims are installed in original location (if equipped). To complete installation, reverse removal procedure. Tighten fasteners to specification.
