You have to pull the engine to do it or just 18 hours of fighting with it?

just about, subframe has to come out to include the front motor mount. major pain in the ass trying to unbolt the mount around the frame. and then when you go to put it back together the studs have spread out from the car's weight and you have to do your samson impression to pull the chassis back together enough to get the frame back in

there is an easier way. Ask me how I know.

For my bike I had to pull the gas tank, then the airbox, then the ignition system, then some crappy rubber flap, then a weird piece of plastic, almost half the body pannels, then a my mirrors because I have to get the windscreen support out of the way. And then I realised that I can skip a few other pieces and just use 3 universal joints to get to the plugs. Problem was that the socket wouldn't pull the plug out so I had to use a set of surgical clamps to reach in and pull it out. Thank god i didn't loose the socket or I would have had to pull the engine out.

You couldn't lower the radiator and come in from the front?
