Today we look at one of the worst design starters from Toyota in response to a complaint about the previous location of starters.
Older Toyota V8s used to have the starter nicely tucked away underneath the intake manifold. Most folks complained that this was too complicated and difficult. it actually was not but people wanted the starter on the V8 to be as easy as a 4 cylinder.
So in response Toyota moved the starter outside on the passenger side on their newer V8s which in turn made it worse. A LOT worse!
Replacing this starter requires removing the exhaust manifold. Which if you live in rusty land or not is quite an undertaking simply to replace a starter! Not the greatest design Toyota!
