I pulled the exhaust manifold off today. Or, rather, I undid all the bolts and fittings and allowed it to drop onto the floor. It's REALLY heavy. And it bounces. Onto your foot.
The great news is that someone previously has clearly suffered the horror of trying to remove the oil cooler in situ, and so when reassembling it very kindly left out one fixing bolt - the bolt that would require us to actually jack the engine to be able to remove the starter motor to in turn get to the bolt. Thank you, whoever you are.
I've had enough grease and grime for one weekend. I'll remove the oil cooler during the week and work out what needs to be done to it.
