Hi all,

just about to fit my secondhand engine and I noticed that one of the bolts
for the manifold to fit onto is missing!!!

There should be 6 altogether but I have 5, the end one is not there!!!!! boooooo!

The questions are:

1. Can I take one off the old engine?
2. How do I remove it?

Hope someone can help!! SO NEAR BUT SO FAT !!!! POOR OLD MINIME!!!

Have you got a 1/2unch spanner?

If so then no. It's still a pain with the right spanner.

:D
