Starter removal tips? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Well, my mechanic finally diagnosed my no start as a dead starter....Had a feeling, just wanted to make sure....

As of now plenum is off ( of course )..Four bolts that hold coil packs are out along with the two electrical connections are loose...

I was told just remove the wires from the head and disconnect the brackets that hold the wires near the cam covers....I guess this way I can just lift up the tray that holds the coils......

I started to just remove the wires from the coils but it's tough to get a good grip on the back ones due to the fuel lines....Dont really feel like taking the fuel lines out again...

I'm sure many members have removed there starter...Which way is easier?

Thanks....
