1. Disconnect battery ground cable.
2. On models equipped with automatic transaxle, remove kickdown cable routing bracket from engine block.
3. On all models, disconnect wire from starter solenoid ``S'' terminal. When disconnecting connector from ``S'' terminal, grasp connector and depress plastic tab to remove.
4. Remove ``B'' terminal attaching nut and disconnect cable from terminal.
5. Remove starter motor mounting bolts, then the starter motor.
