Remove replace starter

If you look in the engine bay where the upper radiator hose comes in towards the motor under the black cover over the top of the motor, the thermostat is likely in the aluminum housing that this hose goes into , 2-4 bolt removal, take the hose off prior, and remove it and the thermostat.
Relatively easy.

Replacing brushes on a starter motor is not a job for a novice. However, the procedure is simple. Remove a battery cable, best to remove the earth cable.
Now get yourself in under the vehicle and identify the starter. There should be at least two wires, usually more on the solenoid. One is the positive battery cable, one is the solenoid actuator wire which just pushes onto a spade connector. Any other wires are connected to the same terminal as the battery cable. Remove all these wires from the solenoid.
Either two or three bolts attach the starter to the engine block. Remove these bolts and voila, the starter is out.
Have fun.

Hi

There is are 3 bolts securing the starter motor, the starter motor is located under the passenger seat area and should be accessed from under the vehicle. The key is to get the van high enough to be able to slide comfortable under the side of the van to access all bolts, only the bottom bolt has a bolt and a nut the other 2 bolts have threads which secure the starter motor onto the engine there is one bolt at the bottom, one bolt in the middle and one bolt near the very top you will have to undo the 2 x 10mm bolts that hold the dip stick first to be able to get to the middle and top bolt of the stater motor. take your time and have some patience you will get it it just takes practice.

have injectors or glow plugs removed and crank engine if water cones out. your engine might have experienced overheating and you have a blown gasket or a cracked cylinder and allows water into one or more cylinders.

Hello,

To replace the starter of a 1998 toyota corolla, please follow the steps below:

1. Remove the key from the ignition, and remove the battery, do not attempt this with the battery in car.
2. Remove the battery and tray.
3. Look to the rear of the engine, You'll see the top of the starter, loosen and remove the 14mm bolt/nut holding it down below,
4. Drain the radiator and remove the lower radiator hose. This will let You squeeze the starter around the AC line,
5. Then install the new starter, the one bolt You removed from the bottom, screw the last 14mm bolt on the starter into the transmission loosely,
6. Go up top, reinstall the top bolt, tighten this firmly but not all the way,
7. Go below, tighten the bottom bolt to final spec.
   
8. Reattach all the wires, make sure the trigger wire is snapped in fully.
9. Go up top, firmly firmly tighten to spec the top bolt,
10. Reinstall everything You removed up top the below,
11. Reinstall the battery and make sure the ignition is off while doing this,
12. Hook up battery and ensure every thing that was loosened has been installed back on.
13. Then You crank it to see if it will start.

Hope this helped. Thank You for using FixYa!!!

firstly locate the starter motor; if you don't know what it looks like follow the positive battery lead from the battery to where it is connected,that is the starter motor,you may be able to remove it from the top or from under the vehicle,firstly disconnect the battery lead from the battery then from the starter motor plus the other small lead from the solenoid on the starter,you will see two or three bolts that hold the starter motor in, remove them & the starter motor will pull straight out to replace it opposite to how you took it out....hope this helps....cheers

Hi you did not say what engine or model but based on a 1.3 12v remove disconnect the battery black (negative terminal) then the air filter housing on top with a wing nut.
then you have the carb underneeth it you can remove this to make access easier label all of the vacum hoses etc. and remove the carb by removing four bolts at all four corners at the base of the carberetor.
the starter is at the back of the engine underneeth the manifold undo the solenoid (one bolt with a wire connected) undo the bolts for the starter sorry cant remember how many. you may need to give it some gentle persuasion with a copper hammer. remove and replace.

about 35 to 40 will suffice ,after all its only ally
