Answer
Hi Jeannie -

There should be a little tab you press to disengage it from the starter. If it is full of oil and grease, spray it with some carb cleaner and you should be able to see it. Or you can stick a small screwdriver between the plastic terminal and the metal blade, and that should do it as well.

I know it is a pain with access tight and all, but you'll get it -

Hope this helps -
