No ....real easy to see it and to reach in and touch it. Not enough room to
get anything more on the wire or the male spade to both place the female on
the male, then at the same time push it on. Richard finally got it on by
laying on his back, while I used 1 finger from above to both bend the wire
to 90 degrees and pull the spade toward me and it snapped on finally. Very
cramped space. The shop that put the motor in and does these starter
changes, said they unbolt the engine carrier, drop it 3-4", then put the
starter on, making all the connections prior to jacking the engine back up
and bolting the carrier back in place. Not a casual roadside repair.
