f**k yeah... they've been burnin up..


ok, so just now i attempted to pull the old starter off... a couple nasty surprises:

1) can't get the f'n bracket for the wiring off... sprayed it down with some liquid wrench and it's soaking now.

2) the lower mounting bolt for the starter... i thought it went missing (as in, it's not there), but turns out half the bolt is actually still in there. SOMEHOW it snapped in half. gonna need to get it reverse drilled and pick up new bolts

3) damn, visibility sucks with all the hoses in the way
