How do you replace the starter on a 1989 Mazda 323?

In: Mazda 323

Answer

Disconnect the battery. The starter is located on the back side of the engine (the side closest to the firewall). Undo the main battery cable from the starter solenoid (held in place with a nut and washer). Disconnect the two smaller leadwires (push-on connector) from the solenoid. There are three bolts holding the starter to the bellhousing and either one or two bolts holding the support bracket from the starter to the engine block. Remove all the bolts and then the starter can be taken out by passing it underneath the intake/injection manifold and taking out the passenger side of the engine compartment (right side if facing forward).
