Drive Belt and Starter

[stangbaba]

Easy, hard?



I'm pretty much a novice, but I can turn wrenches and usually take directions well.



Something easy enough to tackle myself, or let the professionals do it?

Both very easy.

The belt requires the correct socket on the tensior, just put it on the nut and crank so the tensioner releases the tension on the belt.

The starter, i find best to get a bunch of long extensions and access the upper bolt from the front of the car, snaking the extesions past the headers.
