usually hooked to the transmission.

it spins the flywheel ( where the trans and engine meet ) usually on the drivers side.

its small and a cylynder cant miss it!

I don't see the funny part about making a "guess" on something that someone needs help with.
If you aren't sure, don't answer........

it's in a spot that's kind of a ***** to get to. on the passenger's side where the engine meets the trans. underneath the exhaust manifold and below where the o2 sensor is.

I just put a starter in my Capri (same thing as the Mustang) Three bolts hold it in (13mm) and one bolt holds the ground to it (10mm). Takes no time at all if you do it from underneath the car.
