The starter is removed from the bottom of the car, you will have to raise the front to be able to remove the two bolts thet are holding the starter to the transmission and the bracket on the back, the top bolt will be kind of dificult but with the right tools it is easier, just remember to hook all the wires back in the right place.


What are the instructions for replacing a starter in a 1992 Isuzu Trooper?

Remove the positive battery cable first. The starter is on the passenger side of the engine. Might be easier to get to from below. Remove the bolts holding the wiring to it than the bolts that mount the starter in place. Be careful if it has shims that you make sure you put them back in the same way. (These are little thin spacers that go between the mounting surface and the starter). Installation is reverse. Probably would take you no more than 30 minutes to do it all.

How do you change a crank sensor in a 95 Saturn?

The crank position sensor is located on the back side of the engine (the side that faces the firewall) slightly above the starter on the engine block at the number 3 cylinder. It is held on by one 10mm bolt and the wiring plugged into it. I would recommend removing the starter to change this sensor as it will be much easier.

Yes all personal repairs are legal, if you are only replacing the pads and rotors/drums you can easily do it yourself. Bleeding the brakes is easier with 2 people.


Change starter in 1995 Pontiac Grand Am?

The starter is located under the intake manifold. The first thing you need to do is disconnect the battery. The bolts on the starter are 15mm. You need to jack the car up or get it on a hoist to get one of the bolts out. The other bolt is a lil harder to get at but you dont need the car in the air to get at it. It makes it easier to get at if you remove the A/C compressor. You will need about a two foot long extention to get to the bolt. I advise spraying penetrating oil on the bolts and letting it sit for about 15 min. You will have to try and slide the starter out the bottom. It will make it easier if you take off the oil filter before you try to slide it out. So basically you can do two jobs at once. Change the starter and the oil. I hope this helped.
