Does anyone know of a standard engine stand [that can be rented?] that will hold the type 4 engine? I know Jake removes the flywheel in his video but doesn't explain how it is all set up. My only other option is to work on the floor and the bench.
I removed the engine yesterday and seperated the tranny last night. I am going to remove the FI, etc. tonight and start the tin removal. Thanks to Pelican for the great engine removal article in the Tech section...it really works Peter 74 2 Liter (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

the bench won't go anywhere and the stand is mounted securely.
The bench is triangulated into the garage wall, the wall is so stiff now and I can jump up and down on the bench and it doesn't flex at all. I'm 210 lbs at the moment. I'll keep a stick nearby when the motor goes up. |
