The bolts will be either 18 or 19MM. The top one is the pain. The car should be up on ramps. Next to the socket (1/2 drive)place a swivel, then a 24" long extension, to which you connnect a breaker bar. It will be very tight.
The spring on the solenoid is weak and not pulling the gear back. The lube might work for a short while. I had the same problem, only the flywheel started to remove material from the starter gear and made a tinging sound everytime they made contact. Not easy to locate the source of the sound. I would replace the starter.
