Someone there has done it and will tell you how to do it. gman0046 [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Anchorage, Kentucky   Posted by Starfire  -  07/06/2008 12:32 PM Just maybe the best place to start would be in the acquiring of a set of shop manuals for the vehicle. Can be absolutely amazing the amount of information to be found in a set of those. eBay is a good place to look and even if one is not listed the many auto literature vendors listing manuals there may have one if an E-mail inquiry is made.

However putting them back in took a Really Long Time. Sorry I can't help with yours. ForVette [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Southaven, Mississippi   Posted by HenryThe32d  -  07/06/2008 09:37 PM Actually it,s easy Pat. Open the hood and put a pin or bolt in the holr on the hood support so it doesn't close by accident. The wire harness plugs in on one end near towards the center of the car. There is a ground wire mounted on the main body of the motor that needs to be removed along with a support for the motor. The motor is held in place by a clip that snaps on near the base. Remove or disconnect that stuf and the motor can be removed CAREFULLY through the space between hood and headlight panel. With headlight removed the bucket should move freely. After removing the motor hook it up to a 12 volt power source sometimes they just need to be run a little and have the grounds cleaned. P.s. a great lube for the headlight pivots is Anti Seez.
