Message	I have a 1991 N/A 2+2 and my engine is not running at 100% any more, and I was wanting to know if it was hard to pull a engine and put a new healthier motor in like the lower mile jdm engine. I don't know that much about cars but I think I might be able to do it and about how long will it take to do it? I think the hard part is putting all the wires and connecting everything. What was it like your first time pulling a moter and putting it back and on a scale of 1 to 10 how hard was it

Organization of hardware is key. Ziplock bags - Coldfusown 01:58:43 09/15/14 agreed. label each bag and each connector as you remove. - wickdGSXR 14:54:31 09/15/14 What's wrong with your motor? Bad injectors? - TriniTT 06:26:40 09/15/14 Re: What's wrong with your motor? Bad injectors? - Devonz32 08:21:02 09/15/14 So really you don't have any actual metrics.
