Need info on changing the starter '90 80

[Al]

Thanks to all for the replies.
 When I change my pads and rotors, I will crawl under and have a real good

I am saving Tony's reply for reference.

Again thanks, having you guys around sure helps this old man, who loves 
working on cars. However my body does not appreciate my loves.

Al
