    Upper Oil Pan Removal

    Hey guys I was wondering if I have to remove the power steering pump or just the tensioner?




    I'm jacking the motor up and putting blocks in between the motor mounts. Just want to have the easiest route to take. Thanks in advance!

    You are going to have to take it off it only attaches to the upper oil pan. you should be able to swing it out of the way when replacing the pan. I pulled and installed my engine without disconnecting the PS stuff the last time I did it.
