Made a burst at her this evening, it took a bit grunting and wiggling but got everything lined back up after about 20 minutes. I really needed a levelling attachment for the engine crane but made do by raising it high enough and got the roller trolley in under the sump.
It did give me a bit of the chance to raise or lower each end as I offered up the engine to the bell housing. It's something I might look at making afterwards maybe.
I had fitted the release bearing and a water hose yesterday evening, so I was ready to go today.
I made two small mistakes putting her back I forgot to pass the injector linkage in behind the oil filter unit, but I just disconnected it and passed it back inside.
I went ahead then and fitted the alternator and starter connecting up the new sections of wiring I have added. I had made a few short videos of explaining how bits and pieces went together before I stripped, worked a treat putting stuff back.
I forgot to take a photo of the new clevis pin I made for the injector pump linkage, I found it difficult to refit it so I ended up using a cable tie to hold the throttle in position so I could fit the pin. My hands just weren't meant to fit in that space!
With a bit of luck I might have her turning over before dinner time tomorrow.
Anybody got any tips for running in a rebuilt engine?
Also info on adjusting the new clutch, I dont think it's right at the minute because the pedal seems very light at the minute.
