What tools do i need to change a starter in a 1987 delta oldsmobile?

socket wrench, sockets, but there needs to be a physical inspection to see before really anyone can answer this question. You may have to take out some other things just to get to the starter.

87 olds used both metric and american nuts and bolts, Basic hand tools are all that is required to replace a starter.

A socket set with a few extensions, possibly some crescent wrenches, and a pair of pliers. You shouldnt need anything fancy.
Jack and jackstands, or better yet, wheel ramps.

5/16 socket to remove negative battery cable. (first)

1/2 or 9/16 socket and extension for mounting bolts.

11/32 socket for ignition to solenoid wire.

I forget how big for the battery cable to starter.

Or if metric, pretty close to those sizes, maybe 13/14 mm, and 8/10mm.



On these cars it is often easier to take the wires off from above before you drop the starter down.



And if you need to ask these questions, you better go here too. :-)
