[Harry Yarnell]

Removing the left rear wheel is the ONLY way to replace a starter.

Hi folks!

Has anyone figured out a good way to install a starter on a 110 engine? I 
got
under the car with my mechanic's creeper, the car was up on ramps, but I 
just
couldn't get at that top bolt!

Further, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the strength to lift the new starter, 
and
hold it in place while I put the bolts through.

I was wondering if it would be easier to jack the driver's side up, remove 
the
rear wheel, and try to access the starter from the wheel well?

I'd appreciate any adivce. If it can only be done from directly under the 
car,
I'm afraid I'm gonna have to let a mechanic do it, who has a lift.

Thanks!...Bill Hershkowitz 69 Monza Coupe 110 PG
