• Q: What Are the Best Practices for Removing and Transferring External Components When Replacing an Engine on 2007 Acura TL?

  A: The first place to remove the external components is off the engine, assuming the engine is mounted on a portable engine stand that can be rented (or borrowed) cheaply from an equipment rental yard, but this won't be necessary if a stand is not available, at which point the engine components may be purged from the engine beneath, ignoring the danger of tipping or dropping the engine. All external components must be removed when acquiring a new rebuild engine including the drive plate, ignition system components, emissions; related components, engine mounts and mount brackets, the engine rear cover, intake/exhaust manifolds, fuel injection components, oil filter, spark plug, thermostat and housing assembly and the water pump. When removing these components it is important to pay attention to detail, noting the installed position of gaskets, seals, spacers, pins, brackets, washers, bolts and other small accoutrements, this can be handy during installation. One way you can purchase cheap bearings is to acquire a short block, which can be replaced by removing the timing belt, cylinder heads, oil pan, oil pump pick up tube, oil pump, and water pump so you can turn in the old short block to rebuilder as a core.
