yeh, but while you,re pulling the box off the driverside mount will hold the engine in place mate
then once the g/box is free and secured out of the way, you can remove the engine

about 1 hr remove, and 2 to 3 refit azzy, but i cheat tho
the bumper is held by only 2 easy nuts and 2 screws, and i always leave the 2 awkward bolts out (arrowed) and the steel bracket underneath it toothat way i can get the mani off in 2 mins, and dont have to crawl under the car to get the rear mount off
OP
OP
what u mean by taking the inlet off what will it do ? My rear mounts are off ?about 1 hr remove, and 2 to 3 refit azzy, but i cheat tho
that way i can get the mani off in 2 mins, and dont have to crawl under the car to get the rear mount off

If you took the sr one out why were you so worried about taking this one out?
OP
OP
that's the Diffrents I took off gearbox and engine all out, drive shafts, I mean the lot, I wanted to know how frank took the engine out only with leaving the gearbox in
Sent from my iPhone using T
It gets it out of the way when your taking the engine out surely?
OP
OP
that's a good question but taking the inlet off don't I need to take the water pump pipe off what sits under inlet ?
Sent from my iPhone using T
Water pump is on side. Maybe you mean power steering pump? And I don't tink inlet and p/s pump are connected. You will struggle to remove inlet without engine though if the bracket which frank mentioned is still attached. I think I'd remove it as one.
OP
OP
Yeh I will have to remove as one full unit coz the inlet bolts are hidden

Because its a recirculating valve?
I used one because it cost £5
(and did the same job as the £100 ones at low boost).
