I belive he starter is gone it basicly starts when it wants to and clicks the rest of the time. I need to know where the starter is located and how to go about changing it.

The starter should be on the radiator side of the engine. Basically you disconnect the battery then undo the bolts holding th estarter in and take the wires off and replace it. There is a 3 day manual you can purchse on site for $10 for a more detailed operation.
