I've pretty much determined that my "clacking" sound is rod bearings (thanks to all who replied to that post!). Now for the FUN part; doing the job!
I know that removing the oil pan is a definite NO w/o at least raising the engine... my main questions are:
1) How high must I raise the engine to remove the pan?
2) Can I use a floor jack on the crank pulley (with a 2 x 4)
3) Do I need to detach the tranny? (1993, 5-sp. manual)
Thanks for the direction!
