replace accord engine leave transmission in?
 

I need to replace the engine in my 99 accord 2.3 l 4cyl

Can i leave the transmission + cv joints intact and just pull the
engine?

I figure that this will save 3 hours time



thanks

Ray

Why are you doing the swap?

IMHO, you should pull the engine and tranny as a unit. It's easier to
mate them up later. CV joints? You might give them a look and say
"crap".

The RMS Titanic sank on April 15th. US income taxes
are due on April 15th. Coincidence? I think not.

Waaay easier to pull the engine/trans as one piece. If you can even
pull the engine while leaving the trans in at all.
