Read and understand the following text and warnings before attempting installation.
To prevent an ignition spark which could ignite gasoline from the fuel system and
result in personal injury, the negative battery cable must be removed from battery.
Wrap wrenches with vinyl tape to prevent the possibility of a
dropped wrench from ‘shorting out’ a battery, which could
result in an explosion and severe personal injury.
Cover the battery with a cloth or piece of old floormat to prevent the possibility of
‘shorting out’ from contact with other metal objects.
A. Starter/Generator Removal
1. To prevent an ignition spark which could result in personal injury, the negative battery cable must
be removed from battery. Wrap wrenches with vinyl tape to prevent the possibility of a dropped
wrench from ’shorting out’ a battery. Cover the battery with a cloth or piece of old floormat to pre
-
vent the possibility of ‘shorting out’ from contact with other metal objects.

adjusting nut with a 9/16" wrench, loosen the jam nut with another 9/16" wrench. See Figure 1.
Move the adjusting nut up the adjusting bolt until belt tension is relaxed and the starter/generator
belt can be removed.
3. Using a 3/4" socket and open end wrench, remove the starter/generator pivot bolt nut and remove
