Day 14 – 8th May, Everything ready to go

Well got to spent some more money on tools I didn't have, I got a cordless torque wrench, set of torque sockets and couple of 14mm sidcrome spanners. First was to get the stuck nuts all undone, I took to the CV nut with the torque wrench made and it was off in seconds. Next the turbo nuts, bit of CRC and good spanners and the turbo was free.
So onto the list of jobs to get the engine out, fuel lines 3 in total, drained 100ml of fuel from the filter, took lots of photos for the rebuild, never a good idea to get these lines wrong.
With the turbo disconnected from the exhaust the centre exhaust was removed.
The gearbox was the only thing stopping the motor from being removed, a few bolts later and everything was almost ready to remove the engine, just had to understand how to remove the ‘Y’ yoke in the clutch and I was away.
