Default Re: Rookie help to remove engine

Jim, so glad you pulled the front clip off. A good friend told me years ago he NEVER pulls engine/tranny or even just engine with the front clip on. It is easy and almost fun with it removed and a royal pain with it on. Never mid all the stuff you can clean, fix, lube and pait without all that tin in the way! Great to see a new member jumping in with both feet!
