Changing a Starter

I have a 2.3 92 Mustang that MAY need a new starter, and I was just wondering if anyone had any helpful advice for me. Thanks

disconect the battery, jack the car up get under, disconect the cable to the starter, remove the three bolts. To install do in reverse order. Presto done. No big deal once you start looking at it and doing it.

I just did mine. The only hangup was getting the top bolt. I ended up finding a spot in front of the starter where I could stick my socket with several extensions through to get at the bolt.
That made it easy. It took me 45 frustrating minutes to figure that out. Putting the starter back in only took about ten minutes.
