I just got done editing and posting a step by step walkthrough on how to
remove an EJ22T (ej22) from a 1991-1994 Subaru Legacy turbo (TLEG). It
got a little longer than I usually like but every single step is in
there!

 

**edit** how do I embed the video?

No offense, and I'm sure you are just having fun, etc, but.....

 

Personally, if I wanted to watch an amateur pull an engine from something he hadn't ever laid a finger on previously I would go hang with the teenagers down the street.

 

Why make a video of something you have never done before and bumble through it improperly disconnecting things and breaking stuff?

 

Removing the engine with the torque converter attached like that is *asking* for a broken transmission pump drive, lost pump drive retainer clip, torque converter lip seal damage, condenser core damage, etc. Further you don't show that you did it wrong and how to do it properly so some guy is going to watch that and ruin his transmission. 

 

I know this seems to be popular these days, but it's not actually helping to teach people how to do stuff the right way. It perpetuates the idea that people can do this stuff correctly with stone knives and bear skins and that simply isn't the case if you would like to actually drive the car at some point down the road without incurring more costs than having a professional do it for you. 

 

I guess since none of the kids these days can read, this is what has become of America.
