So, here goes; My Silvia had started to give lackluster starts intermittently, the connections were all good, so I thought it was just binding... when it finally stops and won't even respond to some tapping I decide to take it off and I find that the top starter bolt on my SR has lost it's head and it refuses to let my starter go free.
I had already gotten another starter just in case I had to rebuild or junk the one that's being held hostage, so I'd just need the starter off n the bolt out of the hole. Is it ok to try and say, lift/pry the starter until the bolt snaps and then try to extract it? I do need my car back on the road A.S.A.H.P.
Search turns up nothing specific except for one post in 2003 where a starter bolt snapped, but the person was more concerned with locating and removing the other bolt, so it was pretty much fruitless...
Thank you very much for reading, and for your help.
