I got excited to start pulling my motor. Ill post some pictures hopefully later this evening. I have been taking my time and labeling every wire and hose so i can cut back on "what is this and where does it go?" posts during the instal. I may have been over excited as i drained all my fluid from both the motor and the transmission. Today as I try to rotate my driveshaft to remove the bolts holding it on It only has the play from the pumpkin needing some attention. I have the car in nutrual and still cant get the driveshaft rotated. Do Ihave to put some fluid in the transmission before i can move forward or am i just being a wimp?:grief:
 
Are the rear wheels off the ground?
 
:beaten: dang it... Thanks for the fast reply and not over looking the obvious. I promise Im not always this simple.
 
No problem. I do IT work for a living, so I'm used to starting trouble shooting at the start: "is it plugged in, is it turned on?" :grin:
 
"have you tried turning it off and on again"
