Hi - Since my last post regarding oil pressure it became necessary to fit a new oil pump . I have read previous posts with regard to this problem but I'm finding that I cant get the engine to raise at all . I have removed the engine mounting nuts (not those attaching the mounts to the engine),removed the flexible fuel line,A/C hoses,and coolant hoses so that in theory there should be nothing binding.I also slackened the rear mounting bolts.When I try to jack the engine up using a wooden plate under the sump the whole car raises on its suspension - so I guess these sumps are pretty strong .I have tried raising and lowering the engine several times and also rocked it from side to side on its mounts but absolutely no upward movement when jacked-What am I doing wrong please?Would an engine crane make any difference?
Best wishes
