I finally started tearing in to my dead 2.5L. I didn't get as far as I wanted to this weekend on the CSVT. Most of the fluids are drained, hoses pulled of the radiator, some of the exhaust system disconnected and a few items here and there. Not hard at all but just time consuming so far. Some stuff is hard to get too. Plus I spent a lot of time reassuring myself that I had the proper jackstand points(used the same point where the car jack would go).
I have to make some significant progress on it this weekend. Actually, I would like to have the engine and transmission out by Saturday. I think my new engine should be here some time this week. I'm trying to figure out how David Z got his engine and tranny out together through the top. How did he disconnect the drive shafts??? I'm assuming that he took apart the front wheels to do it.
