Hi all, I've unbolted the three bolts on my starter motor but can't get the starter motor off, how do you remove the damn  thing?

Try this one, need to select whats appropiate for your vehicle, but the general idea would be to find the starter motor

HI Thanks for the reply. That is a new website to me and I  don't know all the answers to the questions, so maybe I am not using it right, but couldn't see any instructions there. My alternator is very close to the starter, I am told by a mechanic friend that they are like that to make room for the aircon and I'm wondering how easy it will be to take out? Will i have to remove that also. I saw this video but I cant see the alternator in that one so it may be more complicated than in this video. Mine is the 92 KW engine if that makes any difference!.
