Currently organising an engine crane to get the KR engine out. Then order the mount and get the 20v in

I did however manage some golf related time.
Collected the grill. Nice bargain at £25

Iv agreed to purchase a rear bench too so mines available.
Picked the engine crane up and an engine stand so got those up to the garage. Going to try and take the engine out one night this week.

Most of this week will be spent sorting the Lupo but will try and get some time on the golf when I can

Little update, the kr engine sold on Wednesday night and the lad collected it tonight so out came the tools. Had to do it in the dark as my weekend is occupied with the Lupo. Didn't take too long as most of the parts were out.

And out it went.

Next step is to get the 20v down to the garage and on the engine stand. I need to order the engine mount still and due to being crazy busy it's on the back burner for a few weeks. Should have the engine in within a month or so

Thanks mate. I think I'm going to order the one off the caddy forum. Going to pop up and give the bay a bit of a clean in a minute.smudger1980 said

Did however manage an hour on the golf. Only did a bit of cleaning but every little helps.

Spoke to a mate who is very kindly going to look at the wiring side of things for me and I'm going to look at ordering the engine mount this weekend.
