How to change Starter Motor - 1.2 16v

[Martin_172]

well my starter motors gubbed so im going to order a new one from GSF but would like to know how to go about fitting this to save a bit of cash from paying someone to do it (and get some experiance too i suppose)

ive not had a look at how its connected or attached yet but just wondering if anyones done it before?

is a socket set all i need?
is there anything i should watch out for when changing it?
how does it connect to the battery/power?
do you simply just unscrew the old one and screw the new one in place?

cheers

really easy 3 x 16mm or 13mm bolts holding it on , undo the 13mm power cable and the sensor cable and it pulls off

so its an easy job even for someone whos never worked on an engine before? :clown:
