The engine comes out on a tilt so the gearbox drops lower at quite an angle. So it clears the chassis leg. Goes back in the same, gearbox end first

I decided I'd just let you embarrass yourself on your own without my help :lol:

You wouldn't have been able to make that list without my help :wink:

Ask ClioKiz, he will give you an order for removal.

Really helped me when I took my engine out.

easy enough to do the belts and water pump with engine in situ tbh.

just drop the top mount off, and raise lower engine on a jack......simples.....should only be a 1/2 day job at most

Isn't there an issue with doing the water pump in situ. One of the bolts is obscured
