Great, thanks for the quick response Darren. I was thinking to remove the radiator just to reduce the fiddle factor, although I think the top hose needs replacing too so do that and the bottom one at the same time. If I get stuck, I'm still wondering if that support bracket I mentioned can be detached from the engine by taking out those two forward-facing timing-cover screws, I can't help thinking that might reduce the fiddle factor still further. But I'm encouraged by what you say, thanks again. Any more thoughts gratefully received! Cheers, Nortonius

Hi, this is my first post here, and I have searched the forums with no results so forgive me if this is an old question but... The two engine mounts on my Herald are in need of replacement, am I right in thinking that, having supported the engine and removed the radiator, this can be done easily on the off-side (RHD driver's side) and, on the near-side (RHD passenger's side), by removing two timing-cover screws that hold a support bracket for that engine mount? There's very little clearance between the edge of the timing cover and the end of the stud on the near-side engine mount, I don't see how else I can get to the nut on that stud to undo it, and I've yet to see any parts diagram that actually shows the engine mounts, e.g. at Canley's website... Have I missed something, or what? Thanks in advance. Nortonius
