piece of piss, bend a 15mm ring ended spanner at about a quater back from the ring, undo all nuts in place, get a jack peice of wood on top of jack, jack up on sump to raise engine dont go to crazy, the sump can handle a fair bit, just dont go mental, take note which way the mounts are facing, the engine should be able to be lifted around 2" or 3" and mounts should just fall out. bit of fiddle to get them in and out, with the new new ones i found it was easier to bolt to the engine side first, lower the engine down, then just walk them in one side at a time, with a pry bar |
