How do you replace a starter on a 83 Chevy S-10?

Answer 1

One of the easiest starters ever... 1) Disconnect negative battery cable 2) Remove nut holding power wire to starter. 3)Remove smaller wire(s) to starter. Mark which goes where if several are present, and you don't think you'll remember how it goes. 4)Remove the starter bolts that are locatd directly under the starter. 5)Starter will come out of vehicle at this point. NOTE: Many Chevy's use shims to space the starter from the flywheel. If your vehicle uses them the new starter will likely come with shims. Use the same number of shims as was in the vehicle when you took it apart. If starter grinds when starting after starter replacement you may need to add additional shims.
