The only way to get at the starter for repair or replacement is to remove the entire engine. You can do all the work yourself up to the point where you have to wiggle the engine out of the mount – that’s where a second person is very beneficial. Same with putting it back in. It’s a pain, but it’s the only way.   

Sometimes relays go bad. So before removing the starter, you might want to make sure that when you engage the relay, there’s +12 volts on the contactor-side (going to the starter).   

Ground connections can corrode, especially with rust on the frame. So it’s always wise to use toothed lock washers between the ground lugs and the frame.
