I had to remove the oil filter and some of the locallised wiring but that was all. The only issue that I was warned about (thank you William Mills) was that the new motors have the ability to be split into 2 or 3 parts if you are not careful so I kept the nuts in place until in situ and then withdrew one bolt at a time until the nut was back in place and then repeated for the 2nd bolt. I hope this makes sense but certainly it took no more than a couple of hours on my own.

I know the WDG clamps are anodised, have a blue stripe on the rubber and the rubber has a small flare to more completely encompass the pipe but are they both rated for the same temps and fuel/oil resistance ? IOW, is there any significant difference between the two ? Thanks in anticipation Kingsley in Oz
