What’s up guys,
A few weeks back I spun a bearing in my 83 S10 2.8. I’ve slowly been turning bolts and disconnecting things to pull the engine. The wires are disconnected (at least I think all are disconnected), the flex plate is disconnected from the torque converter, the power steering pump is disconnected, carb is off, and the ac compressor is disconnected. The bell housing, motor mount boltsand are the last thing I think I need to do.
I took off the shroud but was wondering if I could leave the radiator in and just take off the fan? It looks like there would be a good 6 inches+ in there.
Also, where’s a good place to disconnect the gas line?
I’ll be fixing the 2.8. I’m not sure if it’ll be a full rebuild yet or what I’ll exactly be doing. It’s gotta come apart so I can see what’s wrong to weigh my options. Should be fun ether way
I’ll be back working on it tomorrow and will take a few photos.
Always open to any other advice,
