Hey guys i am going to try and remove the engine from my 914 today any advice? I am kinda scared to be honest. Is there any advice u guys can offer? I dont have a lift i am going to use a 3 ton floor jack and jackstands along with a furniture dolly. I think i am going to have trouble removing the cv joint.

Great point about cleaning the socket on the CV bolts, just because the tool fits doesn't necessarily mean it's fully seated. Take the time to get in there with a pick, some solvent, and blow it out with compressed air. And yes, wear safety glasses!
