Agnas doesn't live here anymore
Anyway, fun song that was stuck in my head while I was removing the engine.
Crane won't reach from the front. I was getting ready to remove the bumper then thought it may be worth a check from the side.
That was the ticket.
The tranny is 16.5 inches high. I only had 12 inches of clearance under the car so I decided to drag it out through the top using 2 straps to control the angle. This was not a good move. I didn't manage to keep the pan under the end the whole way so I lost about a cup of tranny fluid on the driveway. I think the right move would have been to use the crane to lift the car by the frame rails. Then slide the tranny out. I was surprised how light it is. It's barely heavier than the Lotus transaxle but handles more than 3 times the torque. Probably because the Lotus trans also has the differential in it.
Golly, I think I am almost done (JK).
I am surprised how much room Agnas had in there.
