where is the starter and does any one have a pic of where it is?

don't have a photo for U but I do know that location, it'* towards the front of the engine down by th cooling fan somewhere on the drivers side, u'll have to get under the car to take it out, not a hard job juss frustrating dealing with those damn screws and ****.

there is like a shield t ype thing do i have to take that off?

it should just go up over the shield and lift out. it is a bugger to work with though because they give almost no room. it is on the drivers side at the very front and it also has 2 bolts to take it off and also the 2 wires that go to the solenoid!!!

so its easy to see? can someone get a pic for me

(the shield) If it'* easy enough to take off (coupla bolts) and it gives you more room to work with, hell yes....take it off. Just be careful and disconnect the battery BEFORE you do anything.

You're right behind the exhaust manifold too.

David, you're getting far enough into that car that you really should buy a book. It'* the lowest, farthest forward thingy actually attached to the block.

Ditto, it'd save you a lot of time and running around to the computer.
