I have never removed an engine from a car,volvo or etc. Never had a need..How long did it take you to remove and reinstall a motor if you have tried this in your 240?Keep in mind I'm talking in a shadetree way,no lift,outside, no garage.I figured the most is rent or buy an engine lift.I know a bunch of stuff has to come off but what 1,2,3 days tops.I figuerd if you are like most people that you don't have enough leisure time to spend on a project like this.Maybe a couple of hours at a time.Let's hear what happened!
