1998 kia sephia starter

Its located just under the intake manifold. you will need to remove the exhaust pipe to access it. there is also an upper and lower intake manifold support bracket that will need to be removed as well to extract the starter.

Its in a tough spot.

You can get to it but it is hard without removing converter it is on the backside of the engine underneath the intake manifold you will have to remove the intake manifold support bracket but two of the bolts come threw the other side of transmission
