Default Motor Pull ?'s

i think i have just about everything cleared from motor to pull it heres what is left i belive.
Basically what's left:
-Figure out how the hell the wiring harness disconnects from under the intake. (it's just about the only thing left on the wiring harness to disconnect)

-Disconnect the Fuel Line
-Drop the Axles
-Hook up the Hoist
-And undo the motor mounts.

Am i missing anything and as for the harness start pulling motor and slwoly take the harness of the back?

Don't you have to pull the intake off before pulling the motor?

I had pulled my head and intake manifold off beforehand, so I didn't have to worry about that.

Also, where are the best points for hooking up the hoist?

for the harness you need to take if off starting at the alternator, the plug and ground, then follow it up to where it screws into your valve cover, then disconnect the fuel injectors and whatnot and trace them all the way to find any and all sections that are clipped/screwed in then you should be free from under the manifold, but be advised there is one or two points underneath the manifold where the harness slides into a bracket or two.

the best points for pulling the motor are the points specifically made for pulling the motor, there is one on the pulley side of the head, i think its pretty obvious, sticks up off the P/S mount I beleive, and the 2nd point is a little more optional, there is another point on the backside of the tranny, or you can use the bottom bolt on the rear mount, or put the link through a stud on the tranny mount and put the bolt on it, all will work fine

did you take the intake manifold support off from underneath, the wiring harness goes through that you may be able to pull the harness out but much easier just take that off, i think thats what your trying to do

When you pull the axles some tranny fluid will come out. I would just do it then

we pulled my motor with the harness still on it...just disconnect the gang plugs on the shock towers, but ya, i had to pull off the lower bolt of the shock fork to pull the axles.....and for the record, putting new honda gear oil in the tranny is a bitch.....dont do it from the bottom like i tried to...just get a longer hose, and feed it up thru the wires(if its in-car) and then use a funnel or squeeze bottle.....

i thought the axle nut was a 32mm...or is that b-series

36 mm socket. and why didn't you just fill it up in the back up light that you can unscrew from the tranny on the top.
