Hey,
Trying to remove the starter from a Caterpillar T40DSA coming from the topside. I've managed to get down to the Starter but there are Hydraulic hoses in the way of one of the bolts and it seems the exhaust manifold is blocking it from being removed in the first place. I've searched to try to find the proper way to remove it and have had no luck. Any thoughts anyone can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Kris
