The starter in Linda's truck finally took a dump today...I've confirmed that it is indeed the starter, and I already have a replacement in hand.

First question: Those bolts that hold the starter on are hard as hell to get at. The only tools I have small enough to get on them are also too small to really torque with, and none of my socket extensions are the right length...either too short or too long. Any suggestions?

Second question: The truck is stranded at my shop, and I'm not thrilled about leaving it here overnight. Is there ANY way to bump-start with an automatic transmission? Any way at ALL? I'd really prefer not to have to towstrap it home.
