So I was able to unload the entire engine out of the back of a Sienna by dragging, sliding, and stacking up a bunch of tires. I was also able to get the entire thing onto an engine stand alone. a.) lay engine stand on its side with engine attached to it. I degreased it and pulled some stuff off. It seems as if the front balance shaft is a little seized up so I’m going to have to take the oil pan off regardless and pull the shafts out. This came out of a 91 Talon AWD |

In true DSM madness, I found a local short block. Hey, you can’t pass up free parts right? This block came out of a 92 Galant VR4. Spare engine for when mine blows up? Use this block instead? Looks to be in decent shape. Backup plans are necessary in life. So now I have two engines! |

This takes the balance shaft elimination WAY too far. |
