I was wondering if there is a trick to get the bolts that are located in the front of the motor. I'm thinking about removing the left engine mount and lifting the motor out another 2 or 3 inches, so I can get at them. This is taking way longer than I expected. Any help please?

i went from the frount of the motor on top by removing the fan and shroud. put them bolts in first but do not tighten them yet, install the rest of the bolts then using a 10mm gear wrench tighten the frount bolts then move on to the rest.



hope that helps.

I finally got it. And its all put back together. Now I have the oil light and the most annoying buzzer in a car ever going off. The oil thermo unit sensor wire just fell off. Me and a friend tried to solder it back on, but no luck with that. Anyone have an extra one kicking around? Or can I get this from the dealer? Also, the oil level meter would make the oil buzzer go off. I'm thinking of just locating where the buzzing is coming from and disconnect it for now. Until I can get the oil thermo unti put back on. Any help?

Ok, I got the buzzer, and oil level light to go off, but I still need the oil thermo sensor.

the screw/plug is orangey. Its the one thats closest to the front of the motor on the oil pan. I need that and the wire its attached to. It might also have a connector to the wiring harness. If I could get one that would be great!
