Hey there everyone. So as some of you may know, last Tuesday my engine let go. I?ve already found a replacement engine that I need to pick up. The car is a 1990 760 turbo, and the new engine is also a 1990. I?ve pulled engines before, but it was always on a fwd manual transmission volvo. Never messed with autos before, or rwd. Right now I?ve got the
Manifolds and head removed, and I believe all electronics disconnected. I?ve removed the bellhousing bolts and have the engine moved forward about 3-4?, with a jack supporting the front of the transmission. My plan has been to leave the transmission in the car and just pull the engine. Is this even possible, or does the trans have to come out with the engine? I can tell the torque converter is gonna come with the engine as I have removed the 4 16mm bolts holding it to the flexplate. I have the electric fan, radiator, and intercooler removed so siding everything forward to get the torque converter passed the transmission shouldn?t be an issue, I?m just worried about breaking something inside of the transmission. Thanks all in advanced!
