Engine Removal

[captndave737]

I know this has been posted but when I do a search on anything almost nothing comes up!!!

I'm getting ready to pull my engine for the first time. The factory manual has you removing all sorts of things before pulling it out but I remember reading that a lot of that wasn't necessary.

Does anyone have a step by step for pulling the engine? I know this is an every year thing for a lot of you.

If you are removing the engine for a rebuild, unbolt any part you can since it will ultimately be removed anyway.

There is no step-by-step as everyone has their own process, and the last one I would consider is the factory recommended one.

You are the one that will have to put it back in and many variables make it different like a lift, proper engine hoist [mine is modified for only TR removals], how the trans will be supported, etc., and your level of expertise with a wrench.
