What is the best way to pull an engine from a 96 Acura TL 3.2.

this is my first major job and I am doing it in the shop at my school.

If you have a lift it's easier to drop the sub-frame and come out the bottom.

Thanks for the advice, that's exactly how I did it. Many people say that is one of the most difficult engines to swap or work on. Thanks again though.

What's so complicated? Pretty simple car.

Edit. Lol you said 96. In that case it's it's not so much complicated as very different. Especially from other hondas
