Dear List,

The ORDER that I question is the blow by blow removal of the 2.1 wasser boxer in my 91 GL in away that is very easy to understand and perform.  "Why" - I hear you ask?

My local VoTech school here in Naples has come to my rescue and will remove my broken engine and rebuild the "new" used VW rebuilt engine I have to install.  The principals have asked that I attend each day students will work on my project and in an effort to guide them in the right direction - I need some direction from my experienced list friends to make sure I don't instruct the students the wrong way!  (I don't want to screwup.)

I know the cooling system has to be disconnected and I know the exhaust system has to come off first - or do I?  (I am only assuming this is what happens.)

Please jot down what you think is the correct way to remove the old engine please.  Then I need an ORDER in which to rebuild (add) all the bits to the "new" engine before we install.  The van will be on a lift.  The replacement engine on my HF engine stand.

The school will take my Beastie the second week of February so we have plenty of time.

Thank you in advance
