ok guys got abit of a problem with my engine crane!!
i borrowed this from a friend about 6 months ago to take the engine out my valver!!
when the engine was taken out all was fine, lifted the engine straight away, foled it bak donw and stored it in my garage till the other week when i put the engine back in!!
this is where the problem started:
connected the crane up to the engine and started to jack the crane up, the crane took the slack, then teh strain from the engine but it wouldnt lift the engine off the floor
so i let the pressure back off and tried again, this time it picked it up alittle way off the floor then stoped again!!
so i kept doin that till it was high enuf to fit back into the car and havnt tried it since
im hoping the seal hasnt gone and kinda hoping it just needed to build pressure back up
any help would be very much apreciated :lol:
