Ready to set my SC on fire and dall it a day. How do I remove the rear wire loom & that plastic casing that is keeping me from being able to get to the 2 rear bolts to remove the rear water bypass joint, which is impeding me from being able to reach the starer bolts?? TIA

I've been following this diagram http://lextreme.com/starter.html but I am at an impass.

Where do I find the "2 bolts" that are supposed to release the harness? On otger diagrams and pics of later model sc4's these bolts are located on top of the rear water bypass...mine are not. I'm not sure if it is a design nuance with mine being a 92 with a 91 build date, but these bolts are nowhere to be found. To this point everything has been straight-forward,mif time consuming, but this issue has caused what I expected to be a 6-8 hour project to now run into its 3rd day. Can anyone offer any insight?

I can offer no insight. Just props for going in!, Empathy for the predicament, and a friendly bump!

Good Luck!
