Before removing any wires, be sure to disconnect the negative terminal from the battery. Label all of the wires that go to the starter and then remove them. Take a photo if possible to avoid any confusion. The starter mounts with two bolts. Simply remove the bolts and wiggle the starter loose. Once it is loose remove the bolts and pull the starter away from the engine to remove it. Installation is the opposite of removal. Be sure to inspect the starter bushing and add a little bit of all purpose grease if necessary. Fastener torque for the mounting bolts is 21ft/lb.

Passanger side, above the starter. You have to remove the starter (don't detatch any wireing, just the 2 bolts). Once you have the starter out of the way, you can remove the fuel filter. Good luck, it's a PAIN!
In general, remove negative cable from battery, remove electrical wires from starter, remove bolts holding starter in place, remove starter. Replace starter in reverse order.
