Starter on Sentras is much easier if u can get under it. And it's BEHIND the engine. Jacks are good, ramps even better. Just push start it one more time....

Good to hear! And yes, the location is not ideal. Lucky no bracket. It's not impossible, just does take some patience. And booze.

Previous owner is a saint!

No updates on this yet guys. More snow and shoveling last night. Took me almost 2 hours to get home. HOPEFULLY will get some time in tonight and will update if I have some luck!

And another storm coming this weekend possibly, for you and us on the east coast. Ridiculous!

Belated update:

Corrosion from being in the salt belt was the culprit. Couldn't get a good angle to whack it off with just stands. Pushed it to a local repair shop and one on a lift they were able to whack it off. Put on remanned unit and it works well.

Sorry for the delay in response on this.
