    not trying to be a twat right but i find it is actually easier to do it with the engine in because you dont have to piss on pulling it out and putting it back taking all the hoses and disconnecting the electrics
    just take your bellypan off and get on your knees will save so much time.

    well i think i'm going to give it a go with the engine still in. i was told by a mate who has been working on aeroxs for years that it's a good idea to take off the rear shock and this will lower the angle on the engine to make it easier

    i must agree with the above its alot easyer to take the engine out . take the 2 bolts off and it just slides out 2 sec job

    would make the job alot easer if you pull the engine out.then you know everthings going to be on tight and propley if you there leaning over panels and trying to ram you spaners in at angles somthing could go wrong.for the sake of an extra 10 min work you may as well.

    also while its out you could give it a clean and cleck it over for any damages. :mrgreen:
