  1. Are you sure it's unlocked? Sorry, had to ask. Anyhow, it could be that the locking mechanism broke or that the levers broke off of the door release. Only way I can think of is to remove the interior door panel and work your way in the door shell and unlock it from there.

  2. Yes, they will bolt up. I'm sure you could use the MAF sensor off the 3.3 as well since it's a ginormous bore. Also, replace the intake charge pipe--the rubber/plastic pos with some real piping.

     

    pointless to swap the 3.3 intake manifolds onto your 3.0 because it has no provisions for the EGR and emissions and plus it's the same thing as your 3.0 intake manifold. What you want is the heads off the 3.3.

  3. not hard at all to remove. you'll need to remove the switches on the dash. Just two. The hazards and something else to get the dash trim panel removed. They are 3 or 5 screws holding the panel in place. You might have to adjust the steering column tilt to manuever it out. Afterwards, its' just a matter of remove the screws holding the cluster in place and unplugging wires.

  4. The reason being that the headlights are forming condensation is because it's not sealing correctly. This happens most likely with aftermarket headlights although I've had good luck with Eagle brand. Anyhow, to fix the problem, remove your headlight and throw it in the oven for a couple of minutes. Quickly pull the glass off from the housing. Clean the interior of the lense, then throw it back in the oven. Pull it back out and seal the glass to the housing pressing firmly. It's hot so wear some gloves! Once it has cooled off, seal the edges with silicone or some type of sealant.

  5. I've never done this job before and was trying to figure if it's difficult to do so.

    I was wondering what I should look out for and any tips and pointers to make it less of a headache to do. Any special tools needed? Do I need to remove the pistons and connecting rods as well after removing the crank?

     

    I need to invest in an engine stand :P
