Yes, you have to unbolt the engine from the K-member and raise it up in the car.

im considering finding a good used low mileage motor and just swapping.... since if he has to pull the motor..no since putting the beat one back in.... he may be able to do it without pulling it. but worst case scenario.

mothafacking headache

See that, guess I should of bought it before you did. It would of saved everyone from having to listen to you cry for the past 24 hours over a simple fix!

$500 fix will suck if it comes to that. $500 to pull engine, fix tube, put in beaten engine = my bad luck.

too bad the new job didnt come last month...

edit - hoping he can do it for the $150...then i can keep my savings account fat for future plans.
