Having some starter issues developing after 190K miles. I do have a fair amount of oil leaking/buildup in the area... So I appreciate the tip that I may need to do some TLC which might kill 2 birds, 1 stone...
Hi .. thank you for watching this video hope this video can help you doing your diy repair .. the parts information if you need it I have it on description bellow or this link amzn.to/3itw7u9
Thank you for posting this! The 15 bolts on my starter are super tights and I cannot get them to budge with my ratchet; but every video I've seen for replacing a Saturn starter shows them coming off just fine. Do you have any recommendations on how to loosen the bolts?
Hmn .. 🤔 yikes .. can you reach and see where the bolt thread .. if you use some heat ..see if you can break it off while the thread bolt is hot .. might break freely … or use some P B Blaster like penetrating oil something too soak the bolt thread to loosen up over night maybe 🤔 🤨 .. worse case you might have to use some bigger breaker bar or 1/2 socket and ratchet or some longer extension bar 🤔.. I guess
Use a breaker bar or more leverage. Sometimes, tightening before trying to loosen will help break it free, too. You just want the bolt to move *the smallest amount*. Make sure everything is clean, tight, and square. Use 6-point(hex) sockets, too. That will give you more direct surface contact to transfer the energy to the bolt head with less chance of stripping the head.
@Vehicles-Tips thankyou. When I took it off, I didn't see the second wire on the top solenoid post, so when I looked up after the starter was out I seen it hanging there.
@@MF-kb2nv nice .. some time that signal connector break off due to corrosion.. if you goin to change the wire make sure you use some heat shrink is last longer than electrical tape 🤙…
Witch one the hardness ? Or the sway bar ? .. you don’t need to remove them out way.. just remove those two bolt holding the start and and start harness just move it out way .. after that everything should come out easy.. i suggest removing upper starter bolt from top is more easier to remove it.. but start bolt from Bottom I just get it from bottom .. much easier.. hope I can help you with that same vehicles you doin ! 🤙👍 thank you again sir .. watching this video if you any other question just give buzz.. more happy help any time 💪
Can you take pic .. more happy help and describe little better. Could be a bracket for harness.. if you think need to be remove.. try remove it .. some of bracket only 10mm bolt holding them or just push clip..or could be transmmision bracket to hold transmission hose etc..don’t hesitate to ask for help .. I enjoyed helping others ..if know .. if i don’t I might ask other lol 😆
@luisaguirre514 oh 😔 sorry this time I was trying to fit in on TH-cam channel and before and now still learning everyday.. hope one day I can become like youtube jedi 😊🙏

Was there 2 wires on the same top post of the solenoid?
Yes sir, signal and Main power 12volt. But the ground is build in to Starter solenoid.. if you need far help don’t hesitate any time 🤙

@Vehicles-Tips looks like is a radieror hose connect it to a bracket.. right below the starter
@Vehicles-Tips I will take a picture in the morning I left the car at work because just a clicking noise from the starter.
Sorry but I can barely hear 🙉 you
