How do you remove the starter from a 1993 Chevy Lumina?

Answer 1

I have a 1993 Lumina Euro sedan with a 3100 V6. I have replaced the starter. Of course, first disconnect the battery. The starter will not drop straight down, so I had to remove the oil sending unit which is located near the starter (toward the passenger side) and also the oil filter (similarly located). The, after removing the bolts and wires from the starter, it can be moved toward the passenger side of the car and dropped down. Put the new starter in by reversing the path. It's a little messy, because some oil will likely spill when you remove the oil sending unit and the oil filter, but that's how I did it. It works the same way on the 1993 Lumina 4 door Sedan, had a time finding all the screws for the plastic dust cover (for a lack of better words). Try to clean the area if you have had some leakage it makes it so much easier to work with.
