New How-To Coming soon. Wanna guess what it is?

Here is a picture of how deep I am .

I am just putting things back together now. It will take me a week to get the guide up. When It is finished it should cover replacement of several items.

Finished. All in all it's a very do-able job with some tricky parts. I took it on because I was tired of resetting my computer every day due to a p0333 code and since I was going to be under there I figured I'd do the starter too.

Knowing what I know now about the difficulty of the project I would have skipped out on doing the starter with mine being just fine. Since I did replace the starter, I wish I had replaced the part in the pic above. They aren't terribly expensive. Oh well.

My recommendation would be, if your starter goes, replace everything under there. If you just need the sensors, just replace those.

Guide almost done.

Guide: Starter, Knock sensor, SAIP replacement 2UZ-FE VVT-i

The above picture is the Secondary Air Injection (SAIP) check valve assembly. It is part of the "smog pump system" along with the SAIP and SAIP Control valve assembly. It is one of the more difficult to remove parts and must be removed to get to the starter. As I was in there already, and I could find no guides on how to get the darn thing out I made my own.
 
Gotta say, very nice write up and well documented with pictures, thank you for taking the time to do this!
