Hello friends!
I am trying to replace my starter. I have an 80’s CMC kit, 1971 Chassis and 1972 engine (both Super Beetle donors).
When I look at what I need to do to disconnect and in my reference material it shows two bolts that need removed. But when I look at my starter set up... that doesn’t seem to be the case.
I’ve got two issues:
1) My starter looks different? Or is different? ...and I’m trying to remove it
2) No matter whether different or not access is TERRIBLE
Above you can see I removed one Nut (bottom circle). The top yellow circle is where I suspected the other “bolt” according to the mechanics guide, should be
view above is the other side Really hard to take the photo... let alone gain access to the part
For the last photo... that doesn’t even look like something that can be unscrewed. Looks like a “U” shaped partial-circle or something like that. But doesn’t look like my mechanic’s manual suggests it should be.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks for reading.
