starter motor removal and fitting

[colouredFunk]

Last time I had to do this, it was snowing, no jacks and hardly any tools and time. It sucked I hated it and it took freaking ages.

The fact that I'm having to whack my starter motor occasionally has led me to believe it's had it! So a nice new one is on it's way from Brickwerks. However, I want to make sure I have the correct tools for the job, and not just a tap in a mole grip to remove the bush. So I've got a few questions

• In a perfect world was is the best tool to remove the bush?
  

• I didn't remove the throttle body last time, and I remember it taking a life time to remove the top bolt (2 degree turns from a normal spanner), can I use a ratchet spanner here instead, does anyone know what size it is?

• tips for getting the bush back in? I know a lot of people have made their own, I haven't got any stock is there an off the shelf tool?. This needs to be tapped in with a hammer right?

• When putting it all back together, do I need to apply any grease to the bush or starter motor? If so, what grease? I just have some fairly generic stuff, will that do?

(yes, I want to be the kid with all the gear and no idea)

Thanks
