Default Blown motor.

Year and trim accord : 1992 Lx Sedan AT (Canada)


Your request for a DIY write up : Engine removal and/or installation.



Any additional notes to be added : Searched for this information for awhile but could not locate it. Going to purchase new engine.

do you have the skills to do a swap? It's not a walk in the park

I have various mechanical experience and I have all the necessary tools for the job. Sockets galore, ratchets, extensions, wrenches, tons of driver adaptors, a chainfall, floorjacks, jackstands, and alot of time. I've found a little information in manuals around the house for engine swaps in other front wheel drive cars but not an Accord. I have a general idea although I've never done it. All I really need is a reasonably detailed guide and a motor which I should be getting shortly. Thanks in advance, Potzi.

Check out the post (here in DIY) about on-line manuals. Grab one for your year (or close). Best thing would be to buy a Helm repair manual (www dot helminc dot com) but those on-line ones look like the same thing (but for British cars with the steering wheel on the wrong side).
