I'm going to have a friend of mine put a new starter on my 92 CV this week. He's put on a number of starters but never on this type of car. So, what is to be expected?...Is it very difficult to do, where is the starter even located?...That may sound like a stupid question but I've only had the car a few months and its been in the garage most of that time. Its a project, so I haven't really been looking around up under to find out where everything is. Any advice???
Thanks

I know that on the 95-97 you need to put a ratchet and a 14" extension through the passenger side front wheel well to get at 2 of the bolts but I am not positive on the 92's.

If it has never been off, there are 3 bolts that hold it in place. Two of them are fairly easy to get to. The third is on top behind the solenoid. We usually use a torx driver and remove the solenoid and the third bolt is a lot easier to remove. The starter is located on the passenger rear of the motor.

Early 92 CV, MG used the same starter that came in the 91 Town Car which was a 2 bolt. You can run into both the 2 and 3 bolt staters on that year.
