I’ve been spending this week trying to remove the D16Y7 from my 1997 Honda Civic parts car to replace the trashed drivetrain of my 1998 Honda Civic ‘Angry Canadian’. Unfortunately, I have no idea what I’m doing so after a 10 hour workday I’ll go back, stare at the engine, have no idea what I’m looking at, then go home without accomplishing anything when I realize that I have to do this shit TWICE. Add in the fact that every other bolt is a lump of rust, and even when I put the engine back in my black Civic I then have to fix the broken exhaust (bolts twisted off of the flange), wire everything back up, fill it with fluids, hope it doesn’t leak/I didn’t break anything... all on my daily driver.

End rant.

You wouldn’t by chance have a link to the 2001-2004 Civic manual, would you?

EDIT: Never mind - found it. I’m definitely gonna have to download it!
