It's out (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) No big issues except a fuel line became hung up, the cap I put on it popped off, now I am high on gas fumes (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif)
I bought an ATV lift, I have never done an engine pull before so I don’t know how much easier it was than a service jack. I need to build some sort of cradle for my next pull. Things didn’t line up where I would have liked them. I am however able to push the engine/tranny around with ease and raise it up enough to get to the underside of them for cleaning and whatnot.
Damn, Those gas fumes are killing me (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/barf.gif) Time to do some cleaning.
It's pretty nice being able to see my entire engine compartment and ALL of my engine/tranny.
I will post some pics later.

Congrats on your first one!

I pulled mine yesterday, as well. Then I replaced the valve springs, then I measured new pushrods, then I put the engine back in.

LONG DAY!
