I can't remove the starter from my 84 Caprice Classic.

"How do I remove the starter from a 1984 caprice classic"? I was able to remove the two retaining bolts, but I can't manuever it around the exhaust pipe. Do I have to drop the exhaust pipe or remove what looks like a support bracket behind the wheel?

My 84 caprice classic it has a very shakie idle

When you start your car, you step on the gas and turn the key, you have set the high idle feature on the carb as part of the warmup sequence. When you step on the gas again, you kick high idle off ...if premature, the engine is cold and it runs ruff, and wikll likely stall under some circumstances until you have reached operating temp. The reason for the ruffness ...is gasoline becomes 'gas' better when the engine is at operating temp than when the engine is cold.

Your battery is getting tired. When you step on the gas and the lights get brighter, it is because you are running the alternator at a higher speed and you are making more electricity which the lights are more than happy to gobble up.

Keep in mind your car is notonly a Caprice Classic ... it is a classic, 26 year old vehicle. It needs a little more TLC than a newer model.

My 1995 chevy caprice classic has a hard shifting problem between 1st & second gears. Any easy fixes to this?

Not really, unless there is a shift kit in there. Have a transmission shop check it out.
