Cannot get starter out. Got the two bolts out, but starter acts like something is holding it up. Does it come out the bottom or top? Or how does it come out?

Hello,

In the diagrams down below I have included the instructions from the vehicle manufacturer for the removal and installation of the starter motor on your vehicle. Sometimes when it is hard to get a component off the engine because things are tight, it helps to loosen the motor mounts and then jack the engine up. This provides the room needed to remove the component. Please go through this guide and get back to us with how everything turns out.

Thanks,
Alex
