Now I try to remove the starter and can't get enough leverage on the top bolt! Seems the only way to get onto it properly will be to move the motor down & forward.....good thing I don't have it in a workshop paying for all this labour! All I'll say is that there are way too many things on this vehicle which suggest absolutely no thought was put into repairing the van down the track....already "been there & done that" replacing the clutch slave cylinder....yep engine out!....found that engine removal couldn't be made more difficult....ultimately the engineering on this car is a joke....maybe the engineers should be made to repair their product. I've worked on cars, vans & motorbikes and this is by far the most unfriendly vehicle I've ever had the misfortune to own. Ford workshops must love them, I hate them....if this is the standard of vehicle being produced it's a sad indictment on the Ford!
