Resigned to pulling the motor to find and fix oil leaks. Ordered the Tangerine plate and it really doesn’t look too bad. Heck, we were halfway there just doing clean up.

In looking at a manual we have, it mentions a washer between the oil cooler and the block. I don’t see this on the parts diagram, and when we did the seals I didn’t see one up there. So-washer or no washer on the studs behind the oil cooler???

Also-once we get the motor out, can we just set it on milk crates or build a simple stand? Don’t really want to invest in an engine stand.

Merry Christmas and TIA

When I did it a couple years ago, I was confused but I checked and there was no spacer between the cooler. I dropped the engine onto a harbor freight furniture dolly and it was very easy to remove and replace the seals. I used the suggestion of a little grease to hold the seals in place. I would use an engine stand if I needed to work on the heat exchangers but for most everything else, it’s not needed.
