Had a lost day yesterday when the engine didn't arrive. It only turned up at 1.30pm today, so I will have to concentrate on swapping over the high-pressure pump, flywheel and clutch, as well as removing the loom etc. ready to patch mine in. Lifting the engine in will have to wait until tomorrow.
- Replace steering-rack / subframe bolts entirely.
- Remove loom and vacuum-hoses from new engine.
- Swap over high-pressure fuel-pump.
- Fit flywheel and clutch.
- Remove oil filter/cooler and rocker-cover for lifting.
- Match engines entirely.
- Lift engine in.
