Engine Swap 1MZ
Hi
My wifes engine seized yesterday, 99 Solara SLE, CA emissions. I called a local salvage yard and they had another one for only $400. The car had just came in after an being totallled in an accident. It has 103K on it. I thought that was an excellent price and probably worth getting and doing as my car is pretty nice and I've already replaced damn near everything in it.
Anyway, I have never done an engine swap before, though I seem to have done everything but that over the years. I could really use a checklist or instructions. Is there anywhere I could get that? Do anyone have such a list they could email me? Or any advice at all
Thanks
Ron
