We have a seized engine in our 1998 Ford Windstar. My husband has been trying to remove the seized engine for weeks, however, he cannot get the engine seperated from the Transmission. He has removed the six bolts holding it on and cannot see any reason why they will not come apart. Is there some sort of trick to get them apart? Do you have any suggestions for this? Please let me know.
