2001 MK4 1.6 SR engine swap/install

[stewart08]

Currently trying to put the engine in


But yesterday in the removal I had to cut the gasket to get it past the drive shaft/boot




Anyone know a way that'll make it easier slotting the clutch assembly into the bell housing without damaging anything?

You need to remove the plate designed for the job. 11mm bolt. Then you can hook the driver side CV over the flywheel first. The gearbox gets rotated into position and bolted on.

The engine is in! Now the fun part of working out all the pipes and accessories

Almost ready for the radiator, front end and fluids then it's back on the road!



Anyone know what this is between the coolant reservoir and wiper fluid?
Not sure what this hose off the bottom connects to or whether it's a drainage/overflow pipe?
