hagge Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Hi! I am replacing the starter motor on my 94 3.0 V6. After a lot of cursing and hard work i finally got the old starter out When replacing the starter, should there be a gasket between the new starter and bell housing? I think i saw some residues of a gasket when taking the old starter out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbaum94 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Pain in the f@#$ing a** when I had to do it. My father gave me the truck as my first vehicle, but left it up to me to fix it up (same year and everything) and I had to change the starter to get it running right, for some reason when I turned the key, it wouldn't even crank even though the battery was good. Starter failed voltage tests got a new one and guess what.. Still didn't crank. Had to find the wiring into the ignition and solder a wire there to get it to start. Just keep a good attitude and you'll take care of your pathy When I changed the starter, I got it jacked up a little and always remember to connect the wire after its in place.. or else you're going to be cursing up a storm when you have to take it out and try again.

k9sar Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I took that stupid bracket off the starter and zip-tied the connector directly to the starter housing. Gave me plenty of room after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
