how do you get to the top bolt on the starter?

I had to take off the heater hose and the egr valve to get to my top starter bolt. And I had the upper intake manifold off also.

Even with all of this off it was still a bitch to get at.

Have fun!

Oh and if you use a short shank (about 4") 14mm closed end wrench on the bolt head (part of the bolt facing the trans) it will help.
