How to change a starter on a 95 Eagle Summit?

Answer 1

it is not that easy but what i did without a manual was look on the computer for the location of it. LOL anyway i have a 95 eagle summit dl 1.5L engine 5 speed trans. and if you are looking at your car from the front the starter is on the left side right behind the trans. on top. so what i did was remove the air filter/ hose, and there is only 2 bolts holding it on and make sure you make a note of where the wires come off the 2 bolts are at a slight angle from each other and the "top" bolt has the wires from the ground of the battery and a little clamp. break both bolts loose but remove the bottom one first ( makes it easier) after you get both bolts out it was not enough room to remove it from the top so next i moved it out enough to turn it upside down so i could remove the wire connected to the solenoid and there is a clip also that will come off with pliers. now the fun part, you have to jack up the car so you can get underneath, ( unless you have a garage and a lift) i did mine in the driveway anyway there is enough room to drop it through the drivers side bottom be careful because there is a wire connected to the engine and you don't want to break anything. it is a pain to get out putting it back was easier for some reason just feed it back through the same way and just let it rest on the bottom part of the engine and from up top again tighten the wire to the solenoid and put the clip back on and feed it back into place. you could probably take off all of those cables and hoses to take it out from the top but it is allot of stuff to put back...hope that will help you or anyone else to change a starter on your eagle summit 1.5 L engine also in case anyone was wandering a 1995 Mitsubishi mirage has the same engine body style etc.
