If you are having trouble reaching the top bolt, remove the tire and slide feet-first under the starboard side of the vehicle. Way in there, Morty. Please use jack stands. Then you should be able to reach up with your right hand such that the inside of your wrist is touching the starter. From there you can reach back and touch the top bolt. I struggled for hours trying to reach going under the car head first. Good luck, lefties
@@waylongreer8945 A total of an hour to install it or to find the bolt? How long did this process take you from removing old to installing the new one? I have to do it with 9 fingers rn.
I have to change the starter on my wife's 2005 F150 today. Not sure if I'm going to be able to get to that top bolt with my big thick hands. Looks like my work is cut out for me today.
I have a 4.6 v8 2004 f150. Can anyone please recommend what tools/extensions for this because everything I have isn’t cutting it for this job and I am starting to get royally pissed off
I don't have a jack nor stands, I'm a 62 yr old woman who unfortunately has a overweight lazy male livin who eats sleeps...$#!@% and plays on his phone all day!! Can't get him to LEAVE!!!AND can't get ANY HELP!! I'm on my own...as usual. Wish me luck!?
I removed engine to rebuild and this starter was one of the hardest jobs. Wire harness was the second
Not helpfult. You dont show how to take the top bolt out. The only difficult part.
Wheel well he said it in the video
Why not show it??@@angel.dc5752
No shit 🙄
@@angel.dc5752 but he's supposed to show how.
So the description says 150 you say 250. That don't help
Take the two phillips head screws out of the coil and lower it a bit to make room to access the hard to reach 13mm
Right! Because of course he would only show getting one of the 3 bolts out....
All you should need is a can-van 90 degree angle tool along with tools he described but to make the top bolt easier that tool is a lifesaver
No, technically it would not have sparked if you had disconnected only the negative.

Thank u..shit um 21 just trying 2 Figure it out.
How long does this take start to finsh
I did this but my new starter just makes a loud whining/buzzing noise.. any idea what that could be?
Sounds like the starter is spinning but the solenoid is not pushing out the shaft
I would ask the same question.....not even remotely the same as my 1989 460
what a stupid statement
Title says f150. But it's an f250. Wtf?

How do people record with potatoes in 2023 still
It wouldn’t have sparked if it’s not grounded to the battery
Where are you from? And labor? I'm in Chillicothe Ohio
At least be accurate in the description!
