I have medium size hands , tricky to get in there , I'm far too lazy to remove the injector pipes and then have to re bleed the injectors so I used a deep 1/4" drive socket and kunckle joint to get them out , I used a short 7MM box end wrench to loosen the nuts holding the wires in place , remember to _hold_ the wires from turning with one hand as you loosen or tighten the nuts to prevent damage .
Didja get the starter out O.K. ? .
Exchanged it or fixed it @ home ? .
We need the details .
