hello there guys. simple question, did anyone have tried changing starter motor before? was it THAT hard? i have nothing but time .

the thing is, my saga (6 months dead) isnt starting. i changed the relay (i put on relay to the starter a couple of years ago, i believe many saga do this rite?), got a new battery inserted and all it did is click sound. LOL!. so, i suspect the starter motor is kong coz well it's a 1988 car and IINM last time it went through some flood a bit .

so, i did some research on the net. coz it is one of quite dangerous job, i need to remove the battery also right? were the srews are tight until need 2 men?

haha. no matter what the car wont start without changing the starter motor. if i cant change it by myself , might as welll calll the mechanic to come by to my house and install the new starter motor =,=!!

mechanic came by yesterday and took out the motor starter. just now he called and needs to buy new one coz that one sure kaput already. he said it will cost RM100. is it the normal price? i meant i saw on the net it's around 100+ no? so, does it mean the RM100 is the recond one?
