I\'ve helped take a few out, but always in the style of "mark this here and replace in the order removed" rather than "I know what I\'m doing and understand this"..

If you simply need a hand from someone who\'s removed an engine or two before, then I\'m not too far if you want a hand, but answering questions on hows and whys is not a strong point to me :)

I did mine recently for the first time ever and the biggest pain was probably me! :spank

Best thing is, if you are unsure of something in particular then post it up and see what advice you get.  I had to do the same and everyone was really helpfull :yes
