The starter on the 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo is massive -- 14.4 pounds -- so when you remove it, provided you don't deem you can clasp it up with one handwriting, practice something to back it, so that it doesn't Blop on the floor. Considering the starters are remanufactured, the Car parts store charges a core reward, which is refundable when you turn the elderly starter in. In the remanufacturing operation, the corporation replaces all internal parts that are malicious, including the brushes and gears.
Instructions
1. Disconnect the contravening battery cable and locate it aside, ensuring that it does not touch metal. Remove the radiator's upper mounting bracket -- above the radiator -- using the capture socket. Reattach the negative battery cable. Check the oil level and top off as necessary.
Disconnect the pipes, using the appropriate line wrench. Plug the ends of the lines with a rag and prop the lines up against the engine or radiator so they don't continue to leak.

5. Install the starter and shims, if any, and tighten the mounting bolts to 32 foot-pounds of torque. Remove the nuts on the studs and attach the wiring. Tighten the nut for the positive battery wire to 12 foot-pounds of torque. Tighten the other nut -- the solenoid "S" terminal nut -- to 22 inch-pounds of torque.
6. Reattach the upper inspection cover and tighten the bolts to 89 inch-pounds of torque. Reattach the oil cooler hoses on the radiator. Lower the vehicle off the jack stands, using the floor jack. Attach the upper oil cooler pipes to the radiator. Reinstall the fan and plug it in. Reinstall the upper engine mounting bracket and tighten the bolts to 32 foot-pounds of torque.
