How to remove and install a starter motor on 2002 Toyota Tundra?

Question

Accepted Answer

The first step for removing the starter motor includes removing the throttle body cover and disconnecting the accelerator cable and intake air connector. The next step requires users to detach the throttle body assembly from its connection to the intake manifold before they can proceed with removing the intake manifold assembly. Begin by removing the 2 bolts that attach the starter to the cylinder block before removing the connection of starter from the block and adjacent connector. The starter wire disconnect requires removing the nut and bolt followed by taking out the bolt to separate the engine wire protector before finishing by taking out the starter unit. The first step for installation requires you to mount the engine wire protector to the starter through the bolt while applying 9.81 N.m (100 kgf.cm, 84 in.lbf) torque. Secure the starter wire to its nut by using similar torque and establish the connection for the starter connector. Fasten the starter to the cylinder block while connecting the engine wire with the bolt. Follow the final installation steps by torquing the two bolts to 39 N.m which equals 400 kgf.cm or 29 ft.lbf. Brand implementation follows by repositioning the intake manifold assembly along with fitting the throttle body assembly to the intake manifold then inserting the intake air connector before reconnecting the accelerator cable and lastly placing the throttle body cover in its designated slot.
