Hi Martin,
It is a long time ago, but I think that I bought some 1/4" hardware
threaded rod and (i) cut it into 4 judicious lengths.
(ii) I then bolted the whole assembly up tight at each mount.
(iii) I then removed one threaded rod at a time and inserted the correct
bolt.
I think that works.
Cheers, John

Subject: Europa-List: Compressing Rubber Mounts
I'm busy rehanging the engine with fresh rubber mounts.
Is there an easier way of compressing the rubber mounts such that you
can get the threads of each bolt to show through enough to put the
washers and nut on?
When I installed the engine first time round I seem to remember
struggling with some kind of clamp but I can't remember what I did now.
I figured this must be a common problem so perhaps I've missed a trick.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Martin Tuck
