Got everything ready to pull the motor out tomorrow. I had forgotten the feeling of struggling to undo the bolts in almost impossible spots and the that rush of pain as they give way and you belt your knuckles on a piece of steel. Glad I am doing this myself and pulled it back from dodgy dan the mechanic. So far I have found a couple of hose clamps not tightened, several bolts loose and a wire not connected.

Picked up another bellhousing and starter today, looking hopefull to be mobile by Easter
