@BowsacNoodle @sj_zero I had to remove the air filter box, the battery, battery pan, the air intake and throttle body just to replace the starter in my car. It actually went better than I anticipated. Then I found that the transmission fluid fill tube had broken in half at some point. Apparently it's common with my model of car. So I had to order that too. It's only held in place where it attaches to the transmission and about midway up the tube. So half of it just freely vibrates over the years until stress fractures snap it in half.

The big problem is they keep stuffing more and more shit under the hood of the car, until there's no free space left to get your hands on things. When I look at the cavernous engine compartments of old 60s and 70s cars I feel envious.
