Engine mounting bolts.

Post by Viktory2k1 »

I was just wondering since this is the 3rd time I had the motor out. Does anyone know of an easier way to install the mount bolt nearest to driven clutch?. Seems I have to remove fuel pump and jam my hand up to my elbow under steering shaft to try to get that bolt in. I usually end up shredding my arm and hand. No access from other side and no Plugs on bellypan underneath. I can do it like this but its brutal. Am I missing a trick or something?
