well damn that was rude.

did you even look at his thread? it has PICS OF THE MOTOR MOUNTS like you requested. he even went so far as to LABEL each MOTOR MOUNT with a CLOSE UP PIC along with it. its pretty much "instert tab a in slot b" difficulty, and it's almost exactly what you asked for.

the top picture, top circle is the heater core (coolant inlet, and coolant outlet)
the top picture, lower circles. Heater on/off valve (this blocks the coolant from going in to the heater core when the heat is not on.
the lower picture, power steering lines that go to the power steering pump/PS fluid tank.

Buy a helms manual. Because you'll have 15 other questions before you're finished.

well if you dont want to look through your helms at least search on here. all your questions have been answered or covered 10 million times. people are not going to spoon feed you answers if you have taken 0 initiative to try and find out for yourself

sorry but the search here is not the most user friendly. always having to retype everything cause back doesnt work with it. some words are to short alone all this non sense. but i do try to use it as much as i can. some things i wouldnt even have the slightest idea how to search so i just ask and wait for answers. i dont see how thats so bad. isnt that what forums are for?

forums are for questions that can't be found spending 5 min looking them up in the helms. Further more forums arn't for questions that have been answered 100 times before. its a waste of server space imo

More over, half the fun of doing the swap is actually learning about your car, and figuring things out on your own... god forbid you change an engine and actually learn something.

maybe I sound like a dick but my swap took me 2 months of trial and error with a helms.pdf and hours of reading previous threads, but in the (painfull) process I actually figured out how things under the hood worked.

everything is pretty much idiot proof, things that dont belong wont fit right in the bay.

this is something that i doubt is in the helms so if someone could answer me that would be great.


and this thread was supposed to be about helping me put my car back together faster and i dont feel like spending another two months. but it just turned into a bullshit thread. i'l do more searches and read the helms. but lets just stop with the non-sense and keep it technical. thanks

The one thing I love about the Helms is that they have awesome diagrams and pictures. If you're in doubt about how something is put back together, look up the section for that system and check out the diagrams that'll show you where everything goes. It's basically plug and play from that point.
