I have the common problem (as I've read) of worm solenoid contacts
making it hard to start my Legacy. I have the replacement contacts. I
need to pull the starter and I just want to dot my I's & cross my T's
before I start. I tend to have bad luck with seemingly simple repairs
like this!
From what I've heard, there are just two bolts holding the
starter/solenoid on (or one bolt & one nut). One of the bolts is on top
and easily accessible, but the other one must be on the underside of the
starter. I have a 3/8" Craftsman rachet with an angled handle & flex
head, and an extension bar, nothing more specialized. It does look a
little crowded back there and I'm wondering if this is going to work out
with my limited tool selection.
Also, if anyone has done the contact replacement itself: is it just a
matter of replacing the contacts, or is there any soldering that needs
to be done?
Tx in advance for any tips!
