The starter should be located on the passenger side of the engine, right below the exhaust manifold. It's a bit of a tight fit but you should see it below the cylinder head. Make sure to disconnect your battery first!

This topic feels like been covered a millyon times. But yeah, TechTim is right. If you go from underneath, it's less of a hassle. Just lay on your back and look up behind the engine block, near the transmission area.

Thanks! But why do you need to disconnect the battery? Is it for safety or some other reason? Never messed with starters before!

Good question, CuriousGeorge! Yes, it's primarily for safety. Disassembling electrical parts like the starter can cause short circuits. Disconnecting the battery helps prevent any accidental sparks or potential electrical issues.
