Help! Can't get the starter out.
Help! Can't get the starter out. How the hell does this thing come out? In case you didn't guess I'm pretty much a newbie. I'm replacing the positive battery cable and I got everything done except the positive wire on top of the starter. I have the 2 bolts out and I can pull it forward a couple inches but after that there's tranny lines, wires, sensors, and everthing else in the way. Really i just need to at least turn it enough so I can get the positive wire off so I can replace the battery cable but I can't even do that.
Do I need to remove the oxygen sensor? I don't have that tool but I'll get one if that's the only way I can get it done.
Also, there's a plug on the oil pan and I'm not sure how that thing comes out and I didn't want to screw it up. I messed with it a little bit but couldn't get it to come out.

I got it out. Once I turned that bolt on the oil pan I could then see how to get the plug off. Once I got the plug out of the way I was able to angle it enough to where I could get the cable off. That's messed up that you have to practically drop the starter like that just to change out the battery cable.
