Engine Mechanical problem
1997 Toyota Tercel 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

We are replacing the engine with one of those 30,000 mile Japanese engines. Our question is, does the engine need to be removed out the bottom or can it be taken from the top?

Hi there,

Remove the engine & transmission as an assembly from the top.
