Re: How do you remove starter on 98 lesabre. cant find ANY helpful info I need

I have a 91 Lesabre. I know huge difference in years. But From the pics it looks exactly like mine with the exception of that "hood dampner" and the plastic cover. There are only 3 bolts that hold this starter in best of my knowlege. Two of the bolts go up into the engine block and one goes into the transmission from the starter side closest to the engine top side of starter and the whole starter will slip out. I experienced the same Click and noting. not even beating on it with hammer would make it start. But Turns out it was the Brushes if that starter is the same as mine. Which it looks very similar. That starter is HEAVY so watch out. I dont see a reason to take the plastic covers off unless they get in your way of removing starter
