Pull or lift the engine, drop the pan then replace the oil pump. Pull or lift the engine, drop the pan then replace the oil pump.
no
You can either pull the engine out, or drop the sub-frame. I understand that dropping it is easier.
Have to drop oil pan
Either drop the tranny or pull the engine.
can i pull a chevy caviler motor 1998 2.2 4cylinder from the top or do i have to drop it from below
You drop the engine, transmission and subframe all together down and out the bottom of the car. Then separate the engine from the transmission on the floor.
drop the tranny and you should be able to do it from under the truck
The easiest is to disconnect all the usual things, and drop the subframe from the van.
pull the fuse
pull out the fuse
The engine is removed out the bottom with the transmission if that is what you are asking.
