142 starter 140-160

Not so simple after all. I real pain in the butt, if you ask me! I finally got mine in the other month after dropping the rear tranny mount cross bar. Even then there was barely enough room in the tunnel and large hammer came to the rescue.

Getting the bolt into the hole is one ordeal. Tightening the bolt/nut is another challenge. It might be easy w/ two, but by myself, this was the source of much loud cursing. Must have gone up over and down under the car at least 50 times.

Hope I don't have to do that again soon.

<>, I'd say, is putting it mildly.

Later,
Al
