I understand there should be nuts under the cross-member and the bolts go in, at angles, from above to allow removal ! Mine prevent removal as they bind when trying to lift the mount off (due to the angle) so we are going to cut them out and replace in a more sensible manner. Can't believe the rubber mounts could be replaced in this configuration - otherwise it's a 1 hour job - not 16 which is where we seem to be at the moment.

There are holes in the cowling for access. The nuts in front are on top.

Access holes in cowl to tiighten the nuts, which, if they fall off, I still have the bolts in place. I was taugh that in any installation on anything that the nuts always go on the bottom. When re-installing engine, I lower the engine down on the engine bed, wiggle it around a bit to line things up and the bolts fall down in place.

After the bolts are in place the plugs go back in.
