Default Just start taking stuff apart...

Disconnect all fuel lines, cables, wires, hoses, etc from the engine and anything that's mounted to the engine that it's coming off. Loosen all the engine to tranny bolts and take them out. I leave one or two in until I'm ready to yank it out. Once everything is disconnected, radiator and everything out of the way, attach the hoist with a chain to the provided attach points. Remove the nuts from the top of the engine mounts. Jack it up until the weight of the engine is held by the chain. Remove the engine mounts themselves from the bottom. Remove the last bolts holding the tranny on and slide the whole thing forward. At least this is how it works with a 5cyl. I'd imagine it would be very similar with the 4cyl.
