JC 1965 1,528 #1 Posted March 26, 2017 I want to replace the starter brushes on my 1991 312-8. Do I have to remove the oil dip stick tube to remove the starter ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,131 #2 Posted March 26, 2017 Is it a magnum or a K series. magnum book doesn't mention that as being needed ...but warns the end caps need to be taped or held in place when you remove the through bolts 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JC 1965 1,528 #3 Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) It's a magnum. I haven't tried to remove it yet but it looks like the dipstick tube will have to be removed. I thought I had seen an earlier post on here about this but I tried searching and can't find anything. Edited March 26, 2017 by JC 1965 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
