Does anyone have an online resource of a "howto" for pulling a 2.3L engine
from a 9-5? If not, which manual should I buy for this process?

Thanks,
Dave Hinz

Big job.

Drop the motor on the subframe and from underneath the car..

hoist is nearly essent.

just a wild shot, why do you want to take the motor out?

I have a backhoe to lift things out the top, but not a hoist
to lift the car.

No oil pressure, compression loss down to zero on the end furthest
from the oil pump. Do I have other choices; work with the block left in the
car for instance?

Thanks for any advice,
Dave Hinz
