Faster is not always better, I’ve seen engines removed in record time but, it took twice as long to reassemble due to damaged parts.
If you don’t have one pick up a Haynes manual chances are you’ll need it some where along the way and it does have a section on engine/transaxle removal.

yeah but see thats just what their saying... in ur post u said the --fastest-- which would be the bone yard style. quite simple to pull an engine really. just pay attention to what ur doing take some pictures for future referance and dont make any rash decisions when u get frustrated. use masking tape to mark wires, write on the tape what they conect to ( which sensor or general area) and tag everything. taking ur time on removing an engine (or trans.(or both)) can save u the extreme pain of getting lost on the install.

If u do manage to get lost.u can alwayse come back and chat with us to get yourself back on track.
