How do I remove the starter and replace with a new one in a Buick Regal 1996, with a 6 cylinder transverse engine
Removal
1. Disconnect negative battery cable. Raise and support vehicle. As required, remove nuts from A/C
compressor, exhaust system and/or engine braces, adjacent to starter. On M/T models, remove bending
brace from around starter (if equipped). On all models, remove other items that may interfere with
removal of starter.
2. If necessary, remove nut from engine cross brace. Using pry bar between upper engine mount and engine,
pry rearward and support engine.
3. If necessary, remove oil filter, air induction tube and cooling fan. Remove flywheel inspection cover (if
equipped). Remove starter solenoid terminal "S" nut and battery cable nut. Separate wiring from starter.
Remove starter mounting bolts. Remove shims and note arrangement for reassembly. Remove starter.
Installation
Before installing starter onto engine, tighten inner solenoid terminal nuts to ensure they are secure in cap.
Starter failure may occur due to terminal or cap damage. Install starter and wiring. Ensure shims are installed in
original location.
