Arggghh! Engine mount!

Post by mr2turbo99 »

How the hell does it go back in there after doing the cambelt? I've tried everything! This is worse than removing the stock intercooler. Any tips anyone?

Cheers!

Yeah up or down im still struggling. Its almost like the engine needs a push towards the passenger side to create more room.

Could try slacking other engine mounts, ideally you want to have an engine crane, so be mega careful if not!!!!
