I5 Engine Removal/Refit Advice Please

[Iain Atkinson]

Hi all,

been lurking for a while, i now need the list wisdom on how to do the above.
I have succesfully pulled a motor out of an 87 CGT and it's going into my
Coupe Q 1985. Getting it out isn't necessarily the hard part!!!

Any tips and BTDT, i start Monday morning 9.00am, as Haynes and Bentley
state "refitting is the reversal of removal" yeah right.

Should i go for just putting the car on ramps or use the axle stands to give
a little flexibility in being able to adjust the height of the car whilst i
am working. Needless to say all this is to be acheived in the confines of my
single garage. Any listers UK or otherwise for that matter who want to join
the party feel free.


TIA and regards to all.
