Yesterday I had a couple of friends stop over. We were in the garage and I related my problem of installing the engine to the transaxle with the TQ attached to the engine. Long/short. I was doing it wrong. Method that works is to:
- first install the TQ onto the transaxle
- then push the engine up to the TQ
- engage the center of the TQ to the crank shaft
- push the engine carefully up to the transaxle (get the angles to line up)
- install 3-4 bolts to hold the flanges tight together
- rotate the engine by hand to align the flex plate's 3 bolts to the TQ
- install the bolts loosely then retighten them
-
Thanks to Dave Hill and Bob Sheidel, They let me help!
