I know a good bit about transformers from a theoretical perspective, but how are the windings made? What kind of insulation is used on the wire? How is the number of coils accurately counted? How are the taps accurately placed?

I guess this could apply to any wire winding as well, like in motors/generators.

Thanks!

Need help removing starter from 1974 Volkswagen Super Beetle?

Every diagram of every starter I have seen shows two bolts coming off the flywheel housing, and the starter fits over those bolts and is tightened down with a washer and a 17mm nut.

Situation: I can find the lower right nut [the one visible if looking from the front of the right rear tire][right = passenger side, left = driver side]. It was easy to remove.

I cannot find the upper left nut. When I crawl under and wrap my hand around the starter to reach for the upper left nut, I cannot locate it. There is something there but it is more square in shape, about 1/2 to 3/4 inches square and curved or rounded on one side, and it is built up taller than the lower right bolt [ maybe a 1/4 inch taller.

Can someone tell me how to remove this starter?

Can someone tell me what is going on in the area where the upper left nut should be?

I need an answer fast - my daughter needs the car to go back to school next week!

I would prefer to take this starter off in one piece.
