Alright, we took two bolts out of my starter, top and bottom, and the bottom bolt just goes back in and spins. Is there a nut holding the bottom bolt? There's a rubber piece below it. Does that come out? And if so, is the nut up above it?

yes there s/b a nut on the lower starter bolt, i remember a nut on one of ther start bolts, the bolt goes through the start and a part of the engine into a nut.

But is the nut on the outside of everything where you can see it or inside a housing?

it's outside.. like say right by the rear rotor leading plug area I believe...



*edit* it goes through starter/bellhousing/rear iron/

That's the top bolt though. The bottom bolt is much too short to go all the way through, unless the owner before me really screwed with something , but it sounds like both of you are describing the top bolt.

We're thinking that might be what the last owner did. JB Welded the damn thing in place.

I said "we think" We just want to make sure there's not a loose nut up in there, because that could cause some serious damage if there is. So does anybody know if there's a nut inside, right past the starter?

Mine has a nut.
