Need info on changing the starter '90 80

[Tony Hoffman]

That cover is secured to the starter with a large hose clamp. It does
not have to be removed to pull the starter. There is a bracket on the
front side of the starter (toward the front of the car, that is) that
has two 8mm head nuts on it, and one bolt going into the engine block
boss. Pull the bolt out of the block, then there are three bolts that
actually hold the starter to the bellhousing. They have nuts on one
side, so you need a wrench and a rachet with socket. I usually put the
wrench on the backside, holding it through the hole for the tie rod,
IIRC.

HTH,
Tony
