It's a piece of piss Ed, just make sure you get a jack under the sump before you remove the mount!ed209 wrote:I have a top mount to tackle, how bad a job is it? It looks pretty straight forward, but would welcome your thoughts on it.

Aye, while I was trying to work out which bit of my tubby's mount had gone, I ended up being able to get it of and back on again in just a couple of minutes. I recommend a big hammer to help you get it back on, and remember the engine's not that heavy and you can move it about by hand
