Default Help pulling out engine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (n00b)

I need to finish pulling this motor out of the car and get it out of the garage by the end of the week so i come to Honda-tech for help.......

The motor is comming out of a 94 teg gsr (If you need to move it to the teg forum please do)

IM a n00b to this and its my first swapping job.

The questions:

Shift linkage- I got the what i would call a stabilizer bar off the tranny, but im stuck on the 2nd linkage. I know that there is some sort of pin holding it in. How do i get the upper linkage off?

Axles - In order to get the axles off, i believe that i need to just pull em correct??? Nothing special holding them in right?? SO i start at the rotor and what do you know. I cant get the rotor off!!! Hammer not working and its really rusted. I didnt notice any cotter pins holding it on so my only guess is the 2 screws but it will not buge. How do you pull the rotors off??? What else is there to getting the axles off???

Fuel pump - I know that i have a full tank of gas in the car so i dont want fuel spraying everywhere. Is there a pressure valve for the fuel before it hits the fuel rail??? or am i good to just go yanking???

I didnt search but i figured ill post it up and in the mean time start searching.

Any help is welcomed!!!!!

Pull the dust shield way and you'll see a little pin in there, use a center punch and smack it out with a hammer.

use an impact driver ($10 at autozone, it is basically a screwdriver that turns when you hit it with a hammer) to get the two screws off, and then take thew rotors off. if they are stck there should be two 8mm bolt holes you can thread bolts into to push them off the hub, or do it the old fashioned way and give it a whack with a rubber mallet. rent a 32mm socket from autozone and buy a breaker bar if you don't have one. unstake the axlenut (it should have part of the nut indented into the axle spline to keep it from turning. and then put the 32mm socket on the axle nut, put the breaker bar on the socket, and jump up and down on the breaker bar until the axle nut breaks loose, there is a tremendous amount of torque on those nuts so you have to hit it pretty hard.

yank it, there is only pressure when the fuel pump is on.
