Subject:Engine swap- parts available
From:SC KERBER
Date:Tue, 10 Mar 1998 08:13:28 EST

I finally got all the parts rounded up (I hope). for a Subaru engine swap.
Last night I got started removing the engine. Got the oil drained and the
sensor wires disconnected and labled.  Air box and Tail pipe are out of there.
Question is : Where do I start to drain the cooling system so there isn't
coolant spewing out of every hose I disconnect?
I will be parting out the old engine, whatever might be salvageble. It died a
horrible death with a rod coming out the top of the case. I peered in the hole
last night and saw more tiny parts lying in the bottom of the case. Since it
hasn't been running in over a year and a half and I've never heard it running;
nothing has any guarantee it will work, but I will ship most parts for the
cost of shipping.
