Thus it begins....

So walked into the garage removed the hood to have a little extra light and this is what lay before me. Having never pulled the motor out of a subaru before and with all the piping and hoses seeming to be extra big and more in the way than ever thus it begins...

I figured started with the messy stuff...so out came came the oil and coolant. Not having a funnel to pour it into a bottle made for an interesting experience. Big shout out to Jake at this point for stopping by and lending a helping hand from here on out.



Out came the rad..didn't really feel like having it get stabbed plus from all the internet kilometers I have gotten in the past few days it makes for alot of wiggle room.


It looks like my intake manifold was put on after the wiring harness was run through it a dozen and a half times so its going to have to come out to prevent me from cutting cables....still a little undecided on what I want to do. Out came the injectors and the fuel line and into bed I went.

Today's goal is to completely separate the wiring harness from the motor disconnect the tranny and see if I can get at the motor mounts without having to take apart the maze of exhaust and manifold piping that lines the underside of the car.

Now to see whats for breakfast...

WISH ME LUCK :)
