Subject: [V8] Starter Removal



4 out 4 of my V8's are on the disabled list and I plan on tackling the
starter replacement today on the 91.

I have the "detailed" 4 book shop manual for the V8 with a very detailed
description on changing out the starter.


Quote 1.)"Disconnect Battery"
        
          2.) "Remove starter"

Sounds pretty simple, but I have a feeling it's a little more difficult.

I have heard from several people that the easiest way to get to the top
bolt is to remove the passenger side distributor to access the 10mm allen
bolt.

Is the distributor removal difficult?  Does it have to be marked and can it
only go back in one way?  I remember working on the old Fords and Chevys
and you had to have the rotor and teeth lined up just right when
reinstalling the distributor or your timing was off.

Any advice would be appreciated
