    I think you just showed me the light! As in getting the starter out, on a 1998 C1500 4.3. I wrestled with it today and called it a day when I made zero progress. After seeing this, I see there is hop! Many thanks for your efforts.

      UPDATE: Fought with the starter for a bit, then dropped the oil pan, the truck is getting a new oil pump. So I decided to install a new starter while I was down there. The old one is original from 1998. Dropped the pan, and the starter literally followed it. I hope it goes smooth on the trip back. Thanks again for posting.

    I appreciate more people putting up videos for these square body s-10. Like you said, not many videos out there for them. I have two s-10’s I’m trying to learn about but unfortunately they have the other engines in them, not the 4.3 ha my luck.

      @@KnuckleHeadGarage27 I bought my 2.5 with 90k miles and right now it’s at 220k miles. Zero major problems, just a couple of sensors and injector problems. My 2.5 seems to run fairly cool, when it had 115k mile on it I was 30 miles away from home with a heavily leaking radiator. It made it just fine and I replaced radiator next day. Been driving it an additional 100k since then. I would pick a 2.5 over any of the s-10 engines for longevity.

    Thank you for giving bolt size in std and metric. Yes, a starter can be a chore. 2004 s-10 can be a 9 or 11 tooth. No way to know unless you remove or maybe find part # on unit. Then buy one. I want one for a spare.

      @@KnuckleHeadGarage27 I have an 01 4.3L 2WD that I can get the outside bolt loose no problem. The bolt nearest the flywheel is wedged in so that I can only get a ¼"
      drive socket on it. You can't spray it because the bolt is upside down, I tried hitting it with a hammer not real hard and spraying it anyway with no luck. All I got out of it is pulled muscles in my back and chest, and there aren't enough swear words to relieve the frustration. I was told not to use heat because the starter cover is aluminum and map gas would melt it. I wonder if this is what Dana is referring to? The reason there aren't many videos on this is because I doubt that many people ever got both bolts loose, let alone the shimmy to get it out of the engine. All this to replace the engine that I found out now has a bad head/gas-anitfreeze mix. ANY HELP you or anyone else can give would be appreciated!!!
