My starter finally quit on me the morning after a ridiculous winter storm. I'm driving the family Saturn at least to get through the week. I tried a couple quick searches, but haven't found many threads on a step by step process. Can anyone direct me to a thread with the a procedure for replacement. Pictures would be a huge help because its just too cold right now to climb under the car.

I would also like to know if anyone has an inexpensive way to get a rebuilt starter. I've heard someone say they took a failed one to AutoZone and they rebuilt it, but my experience with our local stores would make me question their capabilities.

I'm no machanic, but I have replaced the water pump, rear axle, alternator, etc.. on on this car. I'd hate to get rid of it, but I need dumbed down instructions if I'm going to fix it.

I'm very open to paying someone to help if they have a shop, but I can't afford a true professional right now. The car just isn't worth it.

Thanks is advance -Joe
