  • [Corsa B 1993-2000] Engine mount removal?

    I am having trouble accessing the 3 bolts on the right hand engine mount of a 2000 1.2 16v Corsa B, anyone got any hints?

    Right hand - do you mean right hand as Haynes says (ie the offside of the car) or right hand as you look into the engine bay?

    If it's the engine mount on the timing chain / water pump end then the bolts can be tricky to get at. I use a socket with an adapter fitted into a rachet spanner. That clears the bulkhead - just.

      Yup, that's the one I mean. Those adaptors, are they 1/2-3/8, 3/8-1/4 etc?
