To work on your vehicles, you need a basic set of wrenches and sockets, standard and metric sizes. To buy one wrench or one socket, just isn't feasible, in my opinion.
Try 15 mm
what are you asking?
i lost my bolt???
or i can't find a socket tool to fit the one there, metric head size?
you said one is 14mm well that is not the bolt size, its the head socket size.
so i guess your socket set is missing all the other sizes?
10 to 22mm?
what we do is try all metric sockets if stumped.,
it will be one of those.
Hi there.
If your car is a Rear wheel drive then its rather easy.
Jack up the car and put it on stands all at the same height,drain the g/box oil from the trans/box and fit a trolley jack under the g/box and another one under the engine sump, remove remove all parts as required under the bonnet such as top hose any hoses pipes cables and battery term (neg) g/b/cross member, tail shaft, starter motor,all bell housing bolts and linkage speedo cable and wires,there should be a metal plateon bottom 1/2 of housing and can be removed if not then there should be able to get at the convertor bolts 4 or 6 from the starter motor hole and undo them NOW with everything removed 2 people can either try to lift out the gearbox OR a trolley jack in place of the rear jack and lower them both down untill you can slide the box out with the covertor as well ///refit new box with convertor fitted to g/box before fitting to engine.
Its a big job so get it right first time as its heavy and can KILL SOME ONE.
just follow the positive battery cable to engine block ,the starter is at the end of wire ,i believe is a 15mm socket to remove two bolts holding starter and also there is one tiny nut holding a small wire at the back of starter ,,,,,,good luck
If the starter clicks but doesn't turn, then it's a bad starter solenoid or bad starter motor which will have to be replaced.
If a relay under the dash seems to be clicking, and the starter doesn't operate, it could be a bad relay.
Its usually 2-3 bolts for the starter and then the t wires on the rear which will each have a bolt in them. One larger one fromt the battery and the smaller one from the ignition. Do not let the starter hang by the wires and make sure you disconnect the neg battey cable before doing this. But should be 30-60min depending on your skill set.
