Changing crank sensor

[nightroamer]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to change my crank sensor.

I have the engine supported on a jack, and have managed to do the front starter motor / engine bracket bolt.

Any idea what size the bolt through the engine mount is? Seems like a 16 but thought this maybe odd!? Asking as I will need to buy one that size if it is so.

Also what other bolts to I undo?eeek

Anyone have a photo?

Thanks

You've removed the front engine mount correct? There's only 1 bolt holding the crank sensor on, it's a 6mm allen bolt I think.

No I was asking about the mount.

Seems an odd size

16mm sounds about right

couldn't you just undo the bottom with allen key?

Are they connected through? I freed off the Allen bolt but it all seem to stay put

Anyone had any experience of removing just the bottom Allen bolt? Will this work?

I removed the front sub frame when i replaced the front mount.

Think its called a front sub frame its just held on by four bolts.

Is it straight forward, or is he engine mounted on it, in which case I can't remove it really
