Subject: [T3] Worst engine removal ever? > > > After a lot of bad language, my father and I managed to get the engine > out of the car without any damage to the car.

I had not used my transmission jack for quite a few years. Before getting ready to pull them together, I pumped the jack up to see if it still worked or needed fluid. It seemed to work fine. When I pulled the last bolts out, and had the weight of the engine and trans on it, it started to creep down, and I was not ready. I was yelling for the wife to come help me while trying to keep anything from being damaged. I am probably older than you, and I hurt a lot longer. The next time, I will test a jack with a load on it.
