Paul, That's right - yeah, I should put everyone's car in the memo field of my contacts list - I had a feeling after I sent your post, that you didn't have a 16.
Don't know the tricky bits of a 200B, never owned one or pulled just the sump. On the 16, you jack up the engine a tad from under the front pulley, with a piece of wood as an insulator. It's just enough to slide the sump forward and up on the passenger side. If you've got an a/cond compressor stuffed in there on the 200B then that would rule that method out completely. Anyone else help with this Q? regards terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Paul Stanley Sent: Thursday, 19 December 2002 12:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Gearbox and clutch change It's a 77 Jap 200B Terry... chassis no 00000030 remember :) If you _can_ remove the sump on a 200B (front sump) without removing the engine, where would I put the jack under the engine?
