how to remove the starter from a 92 s-10 4x2 with a 2.8 engine
No.
two hours worth of labor roughly. after tax, nearly 200 dollars.
disconnect the negative battery cable then the wires from the starter. Remove the mounting bolts and drop the starter down. Try this for Chev S10 problems. Buy the Chilton General Motors publication #28860. It covers S10s 1982-93 from detailing to engine rebuilds, including changing the starter.
To change the starter on a 1998 s10, the motor mount will have to be removed. Support the motor on a jack with a board on the top of it, and remove the mount to get to the starter.
you have to remove the starter to replace the relay and the relay cost almost as much as the whole starter so you are better off just replacing the whole starter.
