That was about the best how to video I’ve ever seen. Quick and to the point. No rambling on and on and on....thank you!!!
100 % agree!!
Definitely a great video & no background music. 😂
You mean you don't like hearing their life story and how they got started for 10 minutes before they get to what you came here for? And the chorus of "please like and subscribe" added somewhere in there?

This was definitely a no diarrhea of the mouth demonstration. Clear, concise and directly to the point this is how all DYI video should be
Thank you so much for this tutorial, I performed this repair on my 2004 Honda Accord. Without power tools, only using a 3/8 ratchet with 10, 12, 14 and 17 mm and a short extension, took me about 1 hour to complete.
Thank god. I was about to try it with exactly those tools lol
Doing this today going forward with this video thank you
Same here love it
Whoever is watching this stick with it you will get it. That 17mm is brutal but with enough extensions and a big breaker bar you will get it and save your self 400$ in labor this video is amazing
Thank you! I agree the 17 can be tough, but the savings is worth it!
I can’t get it off I’m so scared of stripping it
My brother has been trying shoild I put WD40 on it what do y’all reccomend
If not I gotta pay labour fees tomorrow I feel so stuck with this last 17mm
@@jrodbuzza2564did you manage to pry it off? Im going for the replacement myself and would be helpful to know as to what you did.
@@sidheshkanade I used my regular wrench set and attached my long extension and another socket 16mm or 15mm to the extension. That gave me enough leverage without purchasing a breaker bar. Sprayed 4 times with wd40 over 3 days before it came loose.
Im a mechanic and i’ve been a mechanic since 2002 and I had never done a starter on this particular car so I didn’t know where the starter is. I looked it up and your video poped first. All i got to say is that this is the best video i have ever seen. No bs and such good explanation. GOD bless you brother
verrryy useful
Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you! Recently decided to start fixing my own car rather then relying on a mechanic and videos like this are the main reason I’m able to do it! This broke it down so easily and I was able to fix my no start issue. You’re the man!
Does it make a metal clunck sound when you try to turn it to the run position and everything just goes off?
Interesting
So didn't in now u can stretch 1 inch connection into 7 inch distance or magically disappear parts
😆
One of the best “how to” videos I’ve ever seen. Good info, straight to the point without all the extra long drawn out talking. Great job!
Kind off 😆
I think this is the best video tutorial I've ever used. I didn't have any air tools, extensions or wobble sockets and still did the whole job in about an hour and a half. Thank you for posting. You save me a ton of work and time.
Richard Harvell i’m glad the video was helpful. Thank you for watching!
Amazing. I remember back when I had my Honda Element I lived in fear of the starter dying because of this job. Always seemed to me that there must be a better way to do it and you have proved me right. Well-done!
Indeed -- I have this car with 350k miles on it -- This makes the job doable without spending an entire day on it for the shade tree type.
Just had my Accord not start for the second time. I had the battery and alternator tested and cleaned my battery terminals after the first time, so I think I'm about to make good use of this video. Thanks so much for the upload!
priser24 sorry your hand is giving you trouble. Hopefully this fixes it for you and you’re back on the road thank you for watching!
Like everyone else has said, THANK YOU! It took me ~90 minutes to replace my starter. This is possibly the best how-to video I've ever seen and DEFINITELY the best car fix how-to video I've ever seen. You saved me SO MUCH TIME on this job. Great video.
You saved me so much money! Was able to do this in a target parking lot. The flex head ratchet is a must for the 17mm along with a short extension. I disconnected the vacuum house up front. Reused the gasket. 204k miles. Thanks again!
Thanks for the help. I never would have been able to figure this out without your video. Thank you!
im about to to this lol i order my starter lol
Did it make a clunk sound and lose all power when u try to crank it?
this video was amazing. I watched another one and thought this job was going to take me 2 to 3 hours. I didnt have any automatic tools but still went really quick.
I work at a repair shop and work on multiple vehicles and this really helps my productivity! Great video!
Don’t let the labor guides find out you can do it so fast. They’ll cut the time down to .5
🤫
You, are a brother from another mother, my man!
Great video! A major blessing as I just finished the job. You even say the size of each fastener.
I used some never-seize on the starter bolts as I’m in the northeast.
Thank you again!
I am just a weekend mechanic for my own cars, but this method works great, took me less than an hour and most of the time I was searching for tools. Thanks for such a great How To video!
Probably the best K series starter video on CZcams, Thank you for posting it, your tips worked on my Honda Element too!
Thanks Brian. I followed your steps to change the starter in my 2004 Accord. I was able to remove the 17mm with a 3/8 drive and short socket without the extension. The first time I started it after the replacement, I heard a grinding noise. I took the reman starter out and O'Reilly tested it three times. It tested fine. I put the reman back in and was very careful about placement. It worked great. Parts cost me about $180 (reman starter and gasket). Firestone quoted $520 for the job. Thanks again for taking the time to make this video.
This guy got ripped off you can buy this starter for 50$ brand new on eBay. Don’t pay oreilly or whoever’s overhead and advertising.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 2007 (and I think 2006):
I just changed the starter on my 2007 Accord, and there's a few extra things you need to do.
1) As noted in many of the comments, there is a black plastic box attached to the inside of the intake manifold/plenum. This box greatly reduced the working space that you'd otherwise have once you clam-shell the manifold open, and must be taken off. A lot of people in the comments have said the whole manifold must be taken off, and so this video doesn't work for these years. This is incorrect. I managed to take the black box off pretty easily, and then was able to proceed with the rest of the video. On my 2007, there are 5 bolts holding the black box to the intake manifold - 2 bolts at the top, and 3 at the bottom. The 2 top ones are easy to spot and remove (they also have a metal washer, fyi). The 3 bottom ones are all located behind the assembly, at the bottom left (down near the alternator). You can't really get your head back there to see them, but you can feel them with your hand. All 3 bottom bolts form a triangle, with less than 4-5 inches between each one. They are are also easy to remove with the use of a short extension bar to get the socket on them. If I remember correctly the bottom 3 bolts are 12mm, and the top 2 bolts are 10mm. After the bolts are removed, the plastic box just comes right off, and you can proceed with the rest of the video. NOTE: Given what I've read in the comment section, the 2006 may have 6 bolts? Not sure.
2) I did not have those 2 vacuum hoses (the 2 that he disconnected). Not sure why. Just a heads up.
3) Where the main power is connected to the starter, with the 12mm (I think) nut...that connection is shielded by a little plastic wall around the nut. So getting a box wrench in there is impossible. And as someone pointed out in the comments, getting a socket on there is also impossible because of a structural metal bar that runs right over the connection (you can see this bar in the video, but I didn't notice it until I looked for it). What I ended up doing was switched some of the steps up. A) I disconnected the other two electrical connections. B) I removed the long funky bolt on the far side of the starter. C) I greatly loosened the shorter bolt holding the starter in place (the one closest to you) but did not fully remove. D) I slid the starter out a bit and rotated it up and forward, pivoting it on the bolt that was still connected. E) The main power connection was now no longer under that structural metal bar, and I was able to get a socket on it and remove pretty easily. F) Fully removed the already loose bolt, and pulled the starter all the way out. G) To install the new starter, just reverse these steps (because my new starter also had a little plastic wall around the connection). Get that shorter bolt partially threaded on, attach the main power, and then rotate the starter back and fully seat it, and then fully tighten the two bolts and attach electrical connections.
Hope this helps! Even with figuring this out, I was able to do the whole job in 2.5 hours. If I knew all this from the beginning, I could cut that time in half. Again, this is for the 2007. From everything I'm seeing in the comments, the 2006 appears to be similar. This video is STILL applicable, it just requires a few extra steps. Feel free to ask me to clarify something. (And maybe this comment could get pinned? It would help a lot of people out)
helpful, but I'll add that that black plastic box, 3 bottom bolts..... with a extension, then blind folded , then with it fighting you.... just take the whole manifold off
I just fully removed both.starter bolt and slide the starter back & twist it toward the front of the vehicle and easily disconnect the power cable, on installation just bolt the power cable up (in the right orientation) push the starter back in the proper position & mount it back up...
Thanks about that plastic shell on the backside of the intake on the 2007...
I have a 2006 and didn't remove the box, and had a difficult time, but still managed to finish the job... Should've read your comment first.
@@taylorflowers4598 Sounds like you got it done though!
Great video! I'm in the rust belt and have 205,000 miles on the original starter. The 17mm gave me a very hard time but went and got the proper tools and got it off. Thanks again!
Same here that 17 gave me hard time get it out and back in .. but her did about an hour and happy with the replacement sounds way way stronger...
Just changed out my starter on my '04 Accord and your video was a tremendous help; saved me a lot of time and money. Thank you so much for posting this vid!
Brian Nolan glad to help. Thank you for watching!
You are a freakin’ legend! This was such a great guide, saved us $600 as we did this ourselves with your fantastic guide. We’ve never done this repair and it took us about 2 hours total! THANK YOU
Thank you, thank you and thank you.
I picked off a starter off an old engine, and followed these same steps to install the used starter.
I didn't have any power tools..all manual was enough. And took me about about 25-30mins to install. Thank you for sharing and posting this knowledge. Saved me time, energy and money.
I’m glad the video help to get back on the road. Thank you for watching!
I bought an 04 tsx with a bad starter - this video helped me save a lot of time, money and hassle doing the job. New part was under $150 and it took me about 90 minutes. Thank you for this excellent video, this was the most helpful video I saw. I watched this video 5-10 times before attempting the job. All i had was a basic socket set (regular and deep sockets both) and most importantly a set of combination wrenches. For some of the bolts I needed to use a short socket, then a long one, and then a box end wrench to get it out fully, but I got the job done!
Great video. Process worked well on my 2002 jdm accord wagon. Has the tsx body so there was a bit less room between manifold and fans but still achiveable. Found the flex head was a must have tool and needed a 12mm wrench and pry bar to break the bottom bolt loose. Thank you.
Thank you so much. I replaced my starter today on a 2006 honda accord with an OEM one. Took me a good two hours as it was my first DIY. Seeing the horror of the 17 mm bolt being hard to come off, i sprayed pb blaster two days prior and let it soak. The bolt came off without any effort with a half in socket and 24 inch breaker bar. Also, i guess everyone removed the 14 mm bolt first, which causes further pressure on the 17 mm. Id suggest remove the 17 mm and then proceed with the 14 mm. New ignition switch + new starter + new battery, car starts like a brand new one.
Great video, just used it to change out my starter. Crystal clear step by step, made what I thought was going to a daunting task easy. Saved me an expensive shop visit. Thank you
Glad the video help you save. Thank you for watching!
I used this video as a guide for my 2008 Honda Accord Euro CU2 in Australia (Acura TSX in North America). No dealing with coolant or taking out the airbox with this method. Looking at the Acura TSX shop manual - all it says is disconnect the battery terminal and remove intake manifold prior to getting at the starter. Finally someone on youtube who gets it. Well done.
Superb instructions! Couldn’t have done it without you. You could be an instructor! Thank you!
Excellent explanation. This is a professional at work. I have done the power steering, brakes and now have to do the starter motor in my 2007 CL 9 it seems it is on its way out. This method is so quick I would have got bogged down trying to access the motor from under the car. Thank you very much for the video.
This was very helpful, thank you. We knocked it out. Maybe not in 20 minutes, but much faster than expected.
Thank you for showing that this can be done without completely disassembling the intake system. I was about to have the dealer install a new starter for me, but now this looks way more time-friendly to do myself
Thank you for this “How to” video. Helped me get the starter replaced in my 2005 Accord in under an hour (incredibly fast for me). Everything was spot on and easy to digest. Ty Ty Ty.
I had watched other videos that were a LOT more involved because they tore a lot things apart. I like the approach you took. Much simpler. Thanks VERY much for putting this together. I feel like I can tackle this now, but it means buying additional tools (but hey, I need an excuse to buy new toys, right? lol).
I was curious about cost for a job like this, so I called a mechanic I use all the time. They quoted me around $600!! They said that includes a rebuilt Denso starter. They said new starters aren't even available any more and the Denso gives a longer warranty than buying from a dealer. However, when I called a local Honda dealer, they said they would install a new starter, but they charge $900!!!! LOL I could fly you here, pay you to do the job and still not spend $900 LOL. Even if I have to buy new tools, I'm sure I'll still save at least $300.
Did you end up torqueing that bottom bolt of the exhaust manifold? I didn't see you do it in the video. Hopefully you went back and got it after the video lol
Great explanation of the job. I think your vids have the best breakdowns of the tasks without any drama!
bill beckett thank you!
Man aint that the truth. Dude tried to charge me 200. I dont think you..
This is the best video on changing k series starters hands down. Practically all of the other videos tell you to remove the intake plenum when it’s totally unnecessary.
Thank you so much, what an excellent video and help fixing the problem
Your expertise was spot on from down to what size sockets and the order to take it apart and put back together. I saw a video before yours and he had me damn near taking the top of the motor apart. Thank God I found yours. I'm a 73 year old man and you made this all work for me. Can't thank you enough
Dude now THAT is how you make a how to video! I watched another before this and it was horrible! This is exactly what we want to see, every single step but no waste of anyone’s time, this was absolutely perfect.
Glad you like the video. Thank you for watching!
Only one small bit of advice...make it very clear there’s a huge difference in an automatic and manual transmission for this job. I see you are doing the automatic which is the much harder, and of course that’s what I have but ordered a damn manual transmission starter not realizing and now how to send it back and wait for another.
@@jrockner957 that’s not his fault you ordered the wrong parts. You go
anywhere and tell them your vehicle you
will be told what part is needed exactly.
Wow. After watching several other videos, this is by far the fastest and easiest method yet. Good job on this one.
Great video! One of the best dyi I have seen on CZcams!
Just replaced the starter on our 2007 Accord. Would not have known where to start w/o your video. Excellent instructions. Only a few minor differences on the '07. Can't thank you enough!
Glad the video was helpful. Thank you for watching!
Hey man, thanks for this video and the way you simplified everything save me a lot of time! It took me about two hours cause I didn't have that long extension. But long story short, I got the old one out. Bought a new one and she cranks even faster now! I was so surprised by how quickly she started. Thanks!
About to do the same on my Element. SUPER SIMPLE!! I had a feeling I wouldn’t have to take of the throttle body and you show and proved !! Thank you brother STAY ROCKING IN THE USA 🎸🇺🇸🗽🥁🥁🥁
So first off...this is a great video. I started today around 4pm and finished around 7:30pm. Everything went smoothly until I attempted to remove the last bolt from starter. I had to visit autozone to get a 1/2 extender bar recommended and a 1/2 ratchet. This was very very difficult to take off. Finally after 10 minutes the bolt finally loosened. Thankfully the bolt was not badly stripped. After this, everything was cake. There is not much room to work but I was able to complete the job. Thanks for the video as you did a great job!!
Excellent verbal description that included dozens of important notes. Great presenter.
What an awesome tutorial! You saved me a ton of time and money. Thank you, sir. You're an excellent teacher!
Do we have to change the gasket
Watching this before I attempted to do the job saved me hours of frustration. Great video and info!
Video help you save some time.Thank you for watching!
Your instructions are very clear and easy to follow,. All the required tools you mentioned made the job easier.The time you gave was accurate. Thank you for your video,
I've watched 3 others, Your the professional here. I learned here I mostly work on vintage European vehicles. Even when I'm doing a job for the 100th time I'll watch a few CZcams's just in case there's something better I can learn
Thank you!
You're
Facts
Excellent video with great detailed guidelines and instructions. When the time comes, I will definitely reference it for my 2011 Honda Accord, which appears similar setup. Keep up the good work !!
Have you attempted it on your 2011? I need to replace mine soon and it's a 2011 as well. I've watched other videos but they're disconnecting everything from the throttle body out of the car to a lot of other stuff.
I watch a lot of videos and the other commenters were correct, this is one of the best how-to-videos I've ever watched
Amazing you did the job that fast I wish it worked like that for me. I'd recommend anyone that isn't a pro or advanced take off throttle body and get the gasket for that as well just to get more space its really difficult with the gap in the video. I've had plenty of experience with DIY repairs and have done other cars starter motors with ease but I had a lot of issues with this one. Also I'm not sure if it's just the Aussie variant but for my accord euro there's 2 brands of starter that can be in the car stock (denso style or mitsuba) and the mitsuba one has 2 variants to complicate it further, I could only source the wrong one and had to break the solenoid plug housing on the starter to fit the stock connector onto it to avoid missing work for several days.
Hopefully this saves someone the headaches I had today.
my part number was
Yeah man that just happened to me. Ordered a replacement before I got the old one out and it has to be the exact right one or it won’t fit.
Thanks for an informative repair video. Well done and a great narrative. The only thing I did different was take the OEM starter to an alternator repair shop. All it needed was a new brush assembly kit. $26.38 for parts and $40.00 for labor to install. With tax, $72.19 for a new remanufactured starter. My local parts store had the same starter as you installed for $229.00. Your video and my thrift kept a few dollars in my pocket. Thanks again for the help.
There is a known problem with aftermarket non_OEM starters. They get weak in a few months then will not spin the engine at the correct crank speed, car will start but a lot of codes will start getting set. All related to computer sensing slow crank and thinking it is a poor idle etc. Just a heads up.
@@mronemanband1 Thanks for the thought and input. My job pays very well, they also allow me to pick the days and what hours I work. The down side to this job is I commute about 500 miles a week going to work. We do have newer vehicles that have been problem free, just basic maintenance and service. Wife drives a Subaru and I have a 1 ton Chevy pickup. Use it on the farm and to pull our camper. The Honda gets over twice the fuel mileage with cheaper fuel than the truck does. Tires and service / maintenance cost me about 1/3 of what the truck cost. When I drive 25,000 miles a year just to my job, it doesn’t bother me one bit to drive an economic, 15 year old car. I plan on driving it until something major fails. My last Honda turned over 300,000 miles when we parked it. I have other hobbies I’d rather put my money into than drive new vehicles to work.
Just swapped out my starter in my 2005 Accord this weekend using this video. Thank you soooo much! This video is spot on and a huge time saver!!!
Matthew Fillenwarth glad to hear the video helped you. Thank you for watching!
Wow, have to do one tomorrow, this video sure beats the 30+ minute video i just looked at. Thanks you got a like and sub from me Brother.
Great video. I don’t have this model Honda. But I just like the automotive videos.
Very nice video. Amazing audio walk through. Great job, thanks!!
Thanks much for the great video!! Did mine yesterday and followed your instructions exactly. 17mm bolt was a tough one. Otherwise pretty straight forward.
I did it! I did it! All by myself, with the help of this video. I impressed myself and was so proud :)
Did you have any previous car experience? I'm looking to possibly do this myself but don't have much car knowledge..
You GO girl...I wish I was as brave!
Love the way you did this, Its so much more efficient. Thanks for the upload, much appreciated.
Awesome video, sir! Excellent detail, and excellent camera angles. Thank you! I shall be doing this job on a customer's vehicle on Saturday, and you have saved me a lot of headache and wasted time!
Maybe. Mine has a box underneath the manifold and looks like I'll have to remove the manifold to get to my starter
@@Shrek_4ever Ouch. I was fortunate that the one I did was just about the same as what he showed in the video. Good luck to you, sir!
Thank you for the excellent in depth video, I just replaced starter thanks to your instructions!
Michael Josephs awesome glad the video help you get your car back going. Thank you for watching!
Excellent job explaining the steps for the repair. I usually can't stand these videos but this one was great, straight to the point, no b.s., very professional. Thank you Brian.
Glad you like the video. Thank you for watching!
Great video, took me about an hour because of a super snug 17mm bolt. I had to put some penetrating oil to loosen it up, other than that, the job was a breeze thanks to your video. Liked and subscribed.
This was super helpful... On my '06 2.4L Accord the insides of the intake looked a bit different and there was a pipe of some sort obstructing the starter... Made it more difficult, but not impossible.
Thanks for this, super helpful.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for uploading this video! It helped me out a lot! Of course, it took me a helluva lot longer than 20 minutes due to my lack of pneumatic tools and the gratuitous amount of rust. But still, your a lifesaver and I hope you continue to post more videos!
Just changed out my starter on 2005 Honda Accord....this video was great...I also removed the radiator reservoir one bolt and a little hose... thank you....hope you get rewarded or get a reward...
Glad the videos helpful. Thank you for watching!
Will this technique work for same engine on a 2010 CR-V? Thanks
Thanks so much man! Took me 1 hour because I didn’t have the power tools but definitely get the extension bar for the 17mm and flex socket
Our 2007 Accord SE has a chamber assembly mounted under the intake. It takes up about half of the access gap opened up using this method and made R&R extremely difficult. 20 minutes became 120 minutes for my job. I wonder if it would have made more sense to remove the upper plenum entirely?
Same issue. The black plastic piece bottom bolts are tricky access!
Not his first rodeo with this starter replacement. Incredible and great job!
Love to see this 20 minutes Starter replacement for the Honda Accord V4 2008- 2012 8th Generation - Thanks
Your video just saved me a LOT of hassle! Thank you for sharing this!
Excellent video! However, behind my plenum there is a rather large black plastic enclosure not seen in your engine. Really blocks access to the starter even when pulled aside. What is that part all about and can it be removed also?
Wow that was quick. Thanks for the demo. Good to know I don't have that engine . I have a 1995 honda odyssey and a 98 honda prelude. Good technique
Great tutorial 👌. It helped me. The only issue I faced was not having correct tools for the job otherwise it was fast qnd easy. I saved money and bought tools instead of labor.
Great video! Changing my son in laws starter went Exactely as advertised took us a little longer but there were no surprises thanks
Great video of a starter replacement. Thanks for a concise explanation and a description of the tools needed to perform. Will this same procedure work on a 2009 Honda Accord 2.4l? Thanks again.
I just replaced the starter on a 2006 2.4L i4 Accord coupe with my son. Some differences shows up. There’s a resonator attached to the plenum that caused me to remove some hoses so I could pull the plenum far enough out of the way to access the work area. Other than that, it worked exactly the same and we had it changed out in well under two hours. Thanks for the guidance!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU just changed my starter out today and saved myself a ton of money! Plus I got my 07 accord ex back on the road, since someone decided to steal my excursion a few days ago, it's my only car now. I have some other issues with the Honda oil leak on the front passenger side and a whining and rattling noise both from the front passenger side, I think... THANK YOU!!!!
Really shortened a job I was doing on a new odyssey,
Thanks for the help guys,
Keep up the good work 😁
The Odyssey has an entirely different motor though, how did this K24 starter replace trick help you on a J-series engine?
Fantastic video.
I wanted to know if this procedure would mostly work for the 08-12 Honda Accord, 2.4l 4 cylinders. It's the same engine, plastic intake, and looks like the same setup for the most part.
Any insight? Thanks.
This video was very to the point wish me luck guys I'm gonna be doing this later today swapping out the starter and the knock sensor while I'm at it
I love you bro!!!! Just changed my starter with your help, started right up!! Thank you!!!!!!
josegoestosc Glad it all worked out. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for this video! Saved myself a lot of money. It took a me about an hour to do the whole thing. (Coming from a guy who doesn’t work on cars much)
Thanks for this video, was able to replace my starter with this same method all though it took me a little over an hour I still got it done!
Great video. Is this possible with a Honda 2006 crv as well? I’ve seen both approaches either removing manifold, throttle body, air box etc and underneath approach. Keeping in mind I’m techy but a novice.
UPDATE: I was not able to use this approach on my 2006 CRV. There was simply not enough space between the manifold and the rad. I had to completely remove the manifold, wires, hoses etc. I did not remove the throttle body or air box. In fact to provide more room to get the manifold out, I had to remove the 2x bolt studs on the top of the block otherwise I could not get the manifold out. Once manifold was removed, the starter was the easy part and came out and replaced great. re-assembly was good and all worked. 1st time for novice.
Great video! Do you have a video on changing the timing chain or tensioner for this car or one like it?
worked on my 05 tsx. that bolt for the support bracket at about 1:45 was super hard to find on my car, also had to remove my coolant pump thing to make more room. but i got it done thanks guys
This is an outstanding DIY video! This tip is good to know... Thank you so much!
Omg I am trying to learn....I may have to watch this a few dozen times. But thank you for having it.
This video was right on! Keep up the good work.
Would the same basic procedure work on the CR-V of the same years? I'm thinking maybe more in front of the intake might have to be moved? Thanx
You sir have saved me soooo much time! I tip my hat to you! 🎩🔧
Having trouble getting the 14mm fastener and the 17mm fastener off. Used an extension to get more torque but both are stuck in there. Any advice?
Hello, this video really helpful by the way I broke one of the part while trying to remove the starter and I don’t know the name of that part to purchase. Could you please help me to identify the part?
Wow. You are amazing. Incredible. Awesome. Excellent illustration. I just love it. Greetings from San Diego. Thanks.
I wish I would have watched this before changing my starter. did you leave the plenum bracket attached to the block or unbolt it from the block?
Thanks for this video Brian! Couldn’t find a more perfect video to do the job for my mom’s 2005 Honda Accord!
Glad the video was helpful and your helping mom. Thank you for watching.
@@HowtoAutomotive please let me know if you have anything on a 1990 Toyota 4runner DIY projects?!
Thank you very much! This video is so helpful, I followed this instruction and had my car run.
What are the specs of the two starter mounting bolts? I need to replace them with my new starter and can’t find them anywhere. Thanks!
