The engine is out - pics attached

Another side of the road effort (didn\'t continue the removal how to as we were in a hurry today.)












Yes we cleaned up the slight mess on the side of the road parking area. Also, using the weights bar was a much easier way to move the engine! I live about 8 or so steps up from the road side, then a little walk.

Last time we used the engine hoist and alot of fannying about to get it up there. This time we used brute strength and carried it! lol.

PS : (my hands are sore now!)

The engine is now sitting in my spare room. Waiting to be ripped apart!

The oil lines, some coolant lines and the Downpipe needed to be taken off. Apart from that it was all good.

Took maybe 2 hours or so? The downpipe was being a right fanny!!

Possible water seal failure.
