#2 of 8 Olds 3.5L Engine Removal by danman99 Oct 26, 2009 (1:30 pm)
I'm trying to remove a 3.5L engine from a 99 Olds Intrigue. Having trouble separating it from the transmission. ALL bolts are out; and the half-shaft is removed on the passenger side. Am I missing something?? Replies to this message: 99intrigue00 (Nov 05, 2009 1:03 pm) danman99 (Dec 03, 2009 11:00 am) 99intrigue00 (Dec 08, 2009 6:27 am) and 2 more...

I didn't have a lift so I did a hybrid - dropped the subframe but lifted from above. You have to disconnect the steering to do that. Not for the faint of heart.

Replying to: danman99 (Oct 26, 2009 1:30 pm) Ok, I looked again at my pics and forgot one tip. Did you remove the engine to transmission bolt on the backside of the engine? Check out the pics from number 11 to 17. Replies to this message: danman99 (Dec 03, 2009 11:00 am) 99intrigue00 (Dec 08, 2009 6:27 am) danman99 (Dec 08, 2009 7:41 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: 99intrigue00 (Dec 08, 2009 6:27 am) Since we have 4 vehicles, this car has just been sitting until I could figure out what to do. I think you may have pointed me in the right direction!! I think this bolt might have been missed!! Thanks! Are you sure the moror/tranny have to come out together? It appears that there is enough room to slide the engine away from the tranny and up and out. Replies to this message: 99intrigue00 (Dec 08, 2009 8:29 am)

Replying to: danman99 (Dec 08, 2009 7:41 am) No, not sure at all that engine and transmission need to come out together. In fact, after putting it back in, I resolved to try pulling the motor alone should I ever have to do it again.   Let us know how it goes, and if it's not too much trouble, try to take some pics - I would be happy to create a page for them on my shutterfly website. I would really like that to be a resource for Intrigue 3.5l owners.   Hope it goes well.
