Yes. An amateur can change the starter. The long bolts must be removed, the wiring disconnected and the starter will come out. You must disconnect the battery's negative cable (black) during removal and replacement. It should be the first thing you do and the last thing you do. You need the right tools, patience, and you will have to remove some things to get to it. Be sure and make an area to lay things as they come off so you can reinstall in the same order that the parts come off. If you are careful, the job shouldn't take more than 2 hours. Take off the old one and take it with you when you go to the auto store to buy the new one (for comparison). Good Luck!
