Re: Pulling an engine checklist??
1st and IMO most important...drain and remove the radiator. I made that expensive mistake when I replaced the engine in my diesel suburban. Before that, if you are working on a 4x4...try to make sure your hoist will lift high enough to remove the engine, or have a plan in case it doesn't....the most recent engine swap I did on the same diesel burb, I had to remove the wheels and put it on small jack stands to get the clearance I needed.
