No pressure washer to hand unfortunately. Looking at picking up an engine crane today from HSS, only £40 for the weekend. Going to have to clean and paint it quick sharp then mount it. Thought the top engine mounts were the same between the XUD9 and XU10 but the arm is different so need a trip to a scrappy to get hold of one, there isn't one on the engine.
It's come complete with Lucas still attached, i'm in two minds whether to run it with the Lucas while I get the Bosch bits I need or just fire the Bosch on and trip to the scrappies tomorrow, all I need is injectors and there's a semi-ECU 406 in the scrappy near me that i've already stolen the LDA off.
I've got gaskets etc already, need some sealant to do the water distribution block round back of the engine, and I need a fair few jubilees. It's pretty complete though so hopefully should be not much longer to go! Payday next Thursday too so can get the last few bits done - new brake lines and bias valve all round, FMIC pipes, air filter, aux belt...
Nearly there
By the way, never really looked into it, but on a T2 and Gov'd/LDA'd Bosch with FMIC what can I realistically hope for from the car?
