Someone's been to Machine Mart...
Engine mount holes need to be tapped, along with a few other holes on the block. My old set just wasn't man enough - it'll chase out threads, but couldn't cut new ones very well.

Even though it won't be seen, i thought while it was apart I'd give some bits a liberal coating of hammerite - keep the rust at bay. But now I've run out...

I must admit it's quite stressful... Not wanting to disturb anything else, and cause me future problems.
I've gone for the read, read, read again, then do! 👍
But the more you look at it, the more it makes sense. After stripping the golf one, you get a good idea of what's what, just hope i remember it all when it comes to putting it all back in... 🤔

Due to my shoulder injury I've been messing with the wiring looms...
Golf one is now stripped and labelled, ready to be plugged in. Van one is now removed in readiness! 👍
Birds nest of a wiring loom! 😱😱😱
Did manage to remove the remnants of an old alarm system...
