ENGINE REPLACEMENT
This is a reversal of the removal procedure. The fuel pipe and rear brake fluid pipe pass through the body cruciform frame tunnel and these pipes should be inspected after replacing the engine to ensure that they have not been damaged.
Refit engine and gearbox with the correct grades of oil. Refit cooling system with the heater control valve in the HOT position. After running the engine re-check coolant level in the header tank.
